John, Kind of defeats the point of "automatic". Using a wrapper for application code is perfectly legitimate. However it does not address the sqlite3 command line tool.
The ability to automatically load a library of functions via a dll would be a really nice feature and could be used to promote user contributions for library development for sqlite. For example math function library, or string function library, even the VFS i/o routines could be loaded in this manner.

You can have some form of library of user defined functions which you bind just after you have made a DB connection. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
