Re: [sqlite] sqlite programmed in C++ ...

To make technical decisions using emotion rather than logic is not a good approach. One should choose the best methodology for the particular project, not be self indulgent and choose the one you like. Recently we wrote an embedded application in C, permitting us to use the available C

Re: [sqlite] sqlite programmed in C++

This is funny how language trends get interesting and sometimes a bit emotional too. We all have an opinion on them, and here is mine :-) The basic idea going around in this thread is a very conservative "C is best because 1) it's universally portable, and/or 2) it's very close to the machine (ie

Re: [sqlite] sqlite programmed in C++ ...

Hi, I also like C very much even if I prefer C++ Please note that I was asking to introduce C++ not to re-write (which would be a total non-sense) I just repeat that I use sqlite every days, and I find it awesome, I love it. C or C++? at the end : who cares? I strongly believe that the persons

Re: [sqlite] sqlite programmed in C++

Excellent. I posted a question of development of sqlite in C++ long before. But this discussion benefited me and I think all those who depends upon C++ may have got a good direction. I am using sqlite with my own C++ wrapper since I am using VC++ to develop applications for last 5 years.

Re: [sqlite] sqlite programmed in C++

if I had to do a library, I would probably choose C++,at least the subset C with classes. I will then export the main function as "C" many libraries are done like that now. for example http://www.ode.org/ is mostly written in C++ but has an interface in C I also use Qt because it has a clean

I can perfectly understand the decision made few years ago,and the result is splendid, I use SQLite every days. I am just wondering why not introducing C++? for better memory management for example (RAII) I am just wondering, don't reply aggressively please ... Cheers, Sylvain On Wed, Jun 3,

Re: [sqlite] sqlite programmed in C++

A good tool ltries to be "bette"r, not "easier". Libraries compiled from C are compatible with C++. In general optimization is better with C compilers and the support libraries are more compact and effcient. Producing Sqlite in well written and documented ANSI C was a very sound decision.

Re: [sqlite] sqlite programmed in C++

I think you have to factor the age of SQLite into that explanation as well. I think the first versions of SQLite were released about 10 years ago, at which point C++ compilers were even more non-standard than they are today. Then, once it's functional and stable in C, why rewrite it? On Tue,

Re: [sqlite] sqlite programmed in C++

I have used sqlite for an embedded application using c++. The sqlite library is all in c and compiles on its own. I then created several classes that use the sqlite api. The first is a DbHandler class. This opens the database and provides the public accessors to the rest of application. I

[sqlite] sqlite programmed in C++

Hello, I would like to know if someone already though about to introduce C++ in SQLite? I just think about a minimal subset of C++ that will not make any performance penalty (like C with classes) is it a performance issue? is it a deployment/compiler issue? or any issue? Please don't make any
