Hi sqlite-users,
I'm looking for an easy way to backup a sqlite3 database while it is in use.  
If I could get away with linux 'cp', that'd be easier than 
writing c++ code according to the online backup API 
(http://www.sqlite.org/backup.html), and also it has the advantage that it 
would not block writes.  Initially I thought that 'cp' would be safe because 
sqlite is crash-safe, but then I realized that 'cp' is not atomic, so it's 
possible it won't work.
Thoughts?
Thanks,
Josh
