The sqlite_encode_binary() and sqlite_decode_binary() routines that have been included in the SQLite source tree for ages but which were not built into the library by default have now been fully integrated into the build and are a supported, standard part of the library. They will be included in the next release, and are already included for anyone adventuresome enough to download the lastest code from CVS and build it yourself.
A word of warning: During the process of making these routines official, the encoding was changed slightly (to make it a little faster.) That means that a string encoded by an older version of sqlite_encode_binary() will not correctly decode using the newer version of sqlite_decode_binary(). So if you have been using these routines in the past, you should continue to use the old versions, not the new ones that are now built into the library. -- D.
