Suppose you have a sqlite DB which might be accessed over a network, and might also be accessed locally. My understanding is that it would be disastrous if one client used proxy locking and the other did not - there would effectively be no lock.
The "prefer proxy locking" logic has a strange mode where it uses the runtime environment to override the default behavior, which is to use proxy locking only for remote file systems. I think this is too important to be left to a runtime environment variable. If the application opens the database with SQLITE_OPEN_AUTOPROXY then proxy locking should be use unconditionally. _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
