By examining the code, it can be seen that there are
many places where SQLITE_BUSY is returned (from an API
function) without the busy handler being called.
Anyone know if there is any reason for this? I
would have thought that the busy handler would be
called *every* time that the db is busy.
There are circumstances where waiting and retrying a lock
will not help. In those cases, there is no point in
calling the busy handler. The busy handler is also not
called when failing to obtain a RESERVED lock unless
the library is recompiled with -DSQLITE_BUSY_RESERVED_LOCK=1.
Not waiting on a reserved lock helps to resolve locking
conflicts faster.
