Wasn't clear is Windows was supported.

Good point, I have thought about it but didn't not have time to implement it. I'll definitely provide that option in the near future. > Perhaps OT, but would the hooks added to the WAL-journaling > ever be up-streamed by Richard, under a build flag for example? > Without it, that's basically "forking" SQLite, which is not > ideal... --DD Absolutely. I'd love to upstream it at some point. However I'll wait until I'm 100% sure of the API, the code and the logic, since Richard and the team are known to be rightfully very conservative when it comes to contributions. One bit that I'd like to explore is to have a bit more replication options than just WAL pages: for instance you could have some kind of mixed logical/binary replication that streams the operations peformed on the btree (e.g. I updated this cell with this value), or statement-based replication when it makes sense. Ideally a mix of all those approaches with some euristics to automatically decide which one is the best for a particular transaction.
