Hi Ray,

Look at version 3.4.0 (2007 june 18), third item.

- Added explicit upper bounds on the sizes and quantities of things
SQLite can process. *This change might cause compatibility  
problems* for

applications that use SQLite in the extreme, which is why the current
release is 3.4.0 instead of 3.3.18.

Ah. Very clearly called out. Yes, one wonders how I could have missed  
it. :-)

Hello -

I tried to use an older version of the sqlite3 executable on Mac OS X
with a data file from a newer version. No joy resulted.

Looking at http://www.sqlite.org/changes.html, I do not see any notes
about whether any version breaks binary compatibility with any older
version.

Should it just be assumed that any version change breaks all binary
compatibility with earlier versions? Is this done deliberately? Or is
there somewhere else that issues relating to binary compatibility of
data files between versions is documented?

thanx - ray
