Re: [sqlite] sluggish operation on os x?

2005-02-21 Thread Asko Kauppi
Very much so.  And even to make it a runtime-changeable pragma.
(Because, otherwise things like fink packages would have a difficult 
decision to make. only the application really knows, whether syncing is 
absolutely required, and to which degree.  If the fink author needs to 
make the choice, I'd opt for regular 'fsync()', too (who plugs out 
their OS X anyway.. ;)

F_FULLFSYNC it would be nice to make the use of it a configure option.

[sqlite] sluggish operation on os x?

2005-02-21 Thread Asko Kauppi
Finally getting my SQLite3 code working, I'm experiencing awfully slow 
performance when writing individual data on OS X.

Linux (Ubuntu) is lightning fast, Win32 is.. tolerable, but OS X really 
crawls.  I've tried both with built-in sources, and the new SQLite3 
fink module. Same behaviour.

Is there something I should be aware of concerning this (is the OS X 
port somehow special?) or might it just be a 'bug' in the 
implementation?  For a sample, writing 100 integers takes 30+ seconds!

Here's the code I'm using, as you see, it's not only about writing the 
data, I also need to remove any possible 'subtables' (not going into 
details here?) that might be on the way. Therefore, any write is a 
transaction such as:

	"BEGIN;"
	"DELETE FROM '%q' WHERE key LIKE ?1;"		-- ?1 = "key.%"
	"INSERT OR REPLACE INTO '%q' (key,val) VALUES( ?1, ?2 );"   -- ?1=key 
(str), ?2=val (int)
	"COMMIT;"

I do precompile the SQL in advance, that is not causing the delay.  Any 
ideas??

Re: [sqlite] Basic insert statement - syntax problem

Still, shouldn't the 'mri_output' (table name) be quoted?
17.2.2005 kello 11:45, Anirban Sarkar kirjoitti:
 I am really very sorry.
I mistyped the entire sql statement.
This is what my actual code looks like:
sqlite db1 "cesc_simputer.db"
#Inserting data into mri_output table
  set connection_no { }
  set insert_normal "insert into mri_output (pwd,ac_my,con_no) values 
('$pass','$ac_mth$ac_yr','$sel_con')"
  db1 eval insert_normal {} {

  }
Please note that the problem is with the syntax of the sql statement.

The error messages provided by SQLite seem to be very helpful, can you
use them?
like: if (rc) glua_errorN( "sqlite3 error %d: %s", rc,
sqlite3_errmsg(db) );
Aside that, shouldn't the table name (mri) have quotes ('mri')?
What's the $con_no doing without quotes as well.  Use ?1 for binding
stuff if that's what you need.

AUTOINCREMENT Functionality by default required in 3.0.8


Hi,
I am currently using Sqlite3.0.8 in our application. We have a 
functional
requirement wherein we need for our tables to have unique Primary key
value irrespective of deletions/additions.

To be in detail, even if i delete the last row in a table, the 
subsequent
addition should not reuse the integer primary key of the last deleted 
row.
I find that this functionality is available in Sqlite 3.1 by defining
AUTOINCREMENT for the primary key column. But porting to 3.1.1 is a
tedious task the sqlite database engine is ported onto an ARM 7 
platform
and I dont have time to perform port to 3.1.

I request details of what code needs to be modified so that I get this
AUTOINCREMENT functionality implementation as a default functionality 
in
3.0.8. i.e. for all tables in my database running on the modified 
Sqlite
engine, I require that the integer primary key is never reused.

Please help in this regard.
Thanks in advance,
With regards,
Sankara Narayanan Balasubramanian.



Re: [sqlite] would someone check my SQL..

2005-02-10 Thread Asko Kauppi
Is it true that in SQLite one has no way to check (at CREATE TABLE 
statement itself) whether the table already is there?  I got this from 
a person more accustomed to MySQL:

  >in mysql, the CREATE TABLE command has a 'IF NOT EXISTS' option, but 
as i
  >said, it's a non-standard extension.
  >
  >you could do a "SELECT * FROM table LIMIT 1" and check only if 
there's an

Sure, I can do that but.. shouldn't there be a less elaborate way?

[sqlite] would someone check my SQL..

2005-02-09 Thread Asko Kauppi
I'm crafting a storage module based on SQLite internally.  Think about 
it as 'ini files, but with a database'.  Since this is my first touch 
to SQL, and the number of statements I need is rediculously small, I'd 
like some kind soul to 'proof-read' these and give comments.

Each SQL block is a single statement, and I precompile them with a 
certain 'section' name baked into the code. Here goes..

Table creation:
Loc_PrepareSql( db, ,
"CREATE TABLE '%q' ( key TEXT UNIQUE ON CONFLICT 
REPLACE,"
   " val VARIANT );", section );

	Q #1: What happens if the table already exists?  Should I check for 
that?  How?

Value setting & getting:
Loc_PrepareSql( db, >sql_set,
"UPDATE '%q' SET val=?2 WHERE key='?1';", section );
Loc_PrepareSql( db, >sql_remove_key,
"DELETE FROM '%q' WHERE key='?1';", section );
Loc_PrepareSql( db, >sql_get,
"SELECT val FROM '%q' WHERE key='?1';", section );
Key enumeration (returns 1..N keys):
Loc_PrepareSql( db, >sql_all_keys,
"SELECT key FROM '%q';", section );
Key enumeration with a prefix (ie. "subtable.b."):
Loc_PrepareSql( db, >sql_like_keys,
"SELECT key FROM '%q' WHERE key= LIKE '?1.%';", 
section );

Similar, returns 1..N key + value pairs:
Loc_PrepareSql( db, >sql_like_dump,
"SELECT key,val FROM '%q' WHERE key= LIKE '?1.%';", 
section );

Loc_PrepareSql( db, >sql_transaction_begin, "BEGIN;", NULL );
Loc_PrepareSql( db, >sql_transaction_commit, "COMMIT;", NULL );
Thanks for help, feedback, and encouragement. :)

Re: [sqlite] Using SQLite3 under Visual C++

2005-02-09 Thread Asko Kauppi
I need to do that for OS X, since 'fink' does not currently have 
SQLite3 ported to it, yet.

The solution is multi-OS (Win32, Linux, OS X, *BSD, .. WinCE) so I 
don't want to carry things statically.
For some situation, it might suit.

Subject: [sqlite] Using SQLite3 under Visual C++

The binary package of SQLite 3.0.8 for Win32 only has the .def and 
.dll files.  While this is totally okay for MinGW (gcc) the lack of a 
.lib import library creates problems for Visual C++ users.

Am I missing something obvious, or what should I do?  Shouldn't this 
be a FAQ item?
