Re: [sqlite] Affinity modes
Per your wiki link: Q) How can the strict affinity mode be used which is claimed to exist on http://www.sqlite.org/datatype3.html A) This has not been implemented as of version 3.3.13.

Yes, section 6: mentioning "strict affinity" mode and "no affinity" mode. Unfortunately there was no tag, so I could not link directly to that section. The feature I want most is of course "strict affinity". Jarl - To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] -

The docs refer to a STRICT mode, saying that can be used to force an error if a wrong data type is used. The docs don't tell how to enable it, though. -- - stephan beal http://wanderinghorse.net/home/stephan/
Re: [sqlite] Affinity modes
In order to maximize compatibility between SQLite and other database engines, SQLite support the concept of "type affinity" on columns. The type affinity of a column is the recommended type for data stored in that column. The key here is that the type is recommended, not required. Any column can still store any type of data, in theory. It is just that some columns, given the choice, will prefer to use one storage class over another. The preferred storage class for a column is called its "affinity". Seems pretty specific and explanatory to me. Jarl Friis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Hi.

[sqlite] Affinity modes
Hi. On SqliteWikiFaq [1] I see: Q) How can the strict affinity mode be used which is claimed to exist on http://www.sqlite.org/datatype3.html A) This has not been implemented as of version 3.3.13.
