I wonder if I can do this efficiently in sqlite: for a row, and one column (most likely blob type), I want to append some value to the end of the blob, I do this many times. then I may read up all the appended sections and write out the entire blob with a new value
without any special support, I can read existing blob, add some new data to it, and update the column with the new blob value. but because most incremental updates are small, reading the majority of the old blob is a waste of time. ideally this is a sparse table ( each append creates a new "column", there is no limit on how many columns each row could have, or any schema for columns, for that matter). But I can't find an off-the-shelf solution for sparse tables. (can't use Columnar DB, since my access pattern is still first based on rows) Thanks a lot Yang _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
