First off, I've been using SQLite in an open-source POS (inventory) program and am quite happy with it. Thank you all developers and patch submitters!
Now, I've got two questions.
The first is that I have a column (company) in a customers table. The problem is that this column has a comma in it for some rows. For example:
sqlite> select lastname,business FROM customers WHERE id=449; Toleser|St Lawrence University, Biology Dept.
Now, that's all fine and everything for interactive SQL, but when I'm using this in a program (written in Delphi), the comma messes up the returned values (since they are comma seperated). So, the Delphi interface ends up returning:
Toleser|St Lawrence University|Biology Dept.
That's no good :(. Does anyone have any suggestions on what to do about this problem? I'm using SQLite 2.8.15.
As for my question about temporary tables: How long does SQLite keep the temporary tables around? Only for 1 query? Or until the table hasn't been modified for X amount of time? Or something I haven't thought of yet...
Thank, and keep up the good work! -- Taj
