No I'm not proud of what a lot of OS providers produce. Microsoft in particular. Sun's Java is becoming such a resource pig, I won't mess with it either.
SQLite was and has always been designed to be extremely cross platform portable, bare bones in both footprint and implementation. It is, and should remain so. If someone wants to take the open source and implement it in something like C# or Java, I think Dr. Hipp should contact them and politely ask them to change the name, because the end result will be neither that portable (C#) or efficient (Java.) MHO. Lucky for most, SQLite has not suffered the extreme feature creep that is inherent in most software projects. And it appears a constant battle to keep it true to its roots. If I want a multi-user, full featured database I have a multitude of very successful products to pick from. I won't keep asking the SQLite developers for just one more feature. I tend to use a product for which it was designed. I'm not the kind of guy that just because I own a hammer everything in the world looks like a nail. I guess that is why I can write in more than 10 programming languages. A place for everything, and every thing in its place, so to speak.

A fair comparison of performance isn't between a C and C# implementation of SQLite, but between a C# and Java implementation of SQLite. Both C# and Java are managed languages that run atop a VM that runs atop an OS. C is down on the metal. I would expect the C version to be faster. I don't know the background of why this programmer did a port directly to C# instead of binding C# to the existing C library, but I assume he had his reasons. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Fred Williams" <f.willi...@verizon.net> To: "General Discussion of SQLite Database" <sqlite-users@sqlite.org> Sent: Saturday, August 01, 2009 6:08 AM Subject: Re: [sqlite] ANN: SQLite 3.6.16.C# > > Hummm...
