This is not a true memory leak. The memory allocated is never freed but it does get reused for subsequent invocations of sqlite_open().
The malloced memory is used to initialize some data structures that are needed to work around bugs in the design of POSIX advisory locks. See the file os.c for details. -- D. Richard Hipp -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- 704.948.4565
