I tried, but following the building instruction on Wiki for Mac OS X (adding "--disable-shared" to configure) does not build the dynamic link library (of course, with that setting) so pysqlite still does not access the new sqlite lib but only the old one. I have a static lib of 3.3.17 only. May I ask exactly why the wiki instruct to NOT build shared lib ? The reference of a bad libtool still applies to recent OS X releases ? If I have time maybe I'll make a couple of tries but I'ld know more about this issue ;) Anyway, thanks for your answer! :) > > On 5/23/07, Alessandro de Manzano <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > >Hello, > > > >I'm using Sqlite since 2005 for a bunch of projects and I must say it > >really rocks :) > > > >My default workstation is a Mac OS X 10.4.9 (old PMac G4) where I > >develop an application of mine using Python 2.4 + Sqlite 3.1.3 + > >Pysqlite 2.x (sorry don't remember exactly and I'm not on that machine > >right now) and all works really fine. > > > >I'm using the default Sqlite installation provided by Mac OS X, so it's > >an old version 3.1.3. > > > >In my application I should now use a couple of "new" features available > >only on 3.2.x / 3.3.x version of Sqlite (ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN for > >example) but I'm very worried about installing a new Sqlite library since > >I'm afraid it could badly broke some Mac-specific use. > > > >As you may know, many Apple provided softwares use Sqlite and I don't > >know how the could react if I upgrade the system default > >(/usr/lib/*sql*) library... i.e. iTunes, iCal, etc. > > > >So my question is: does anyone already tried this upgrade ?
