In the final weeks of editing before we went to print, the SQLite development team and I were in a bit of a race to see who was going to "go gold" first: the book or SQLite 3.7. The dev team won by about a week. Either way, we were unable to cover the new 3.7 features in the book. The book covers everything up-to-and-including 3.6.23.1 (the last 3.6 release), but the APIs and features of 3.7 became stable too late to be included. Everyone recognized that WAL was a very important feature, however, so I did write a supplementary article: http://answers.oreilly.com/topic/2035-whats-new-in-sqlite-37/ Looking back, it's hard to believe that 3.7 is only about three months old. -j -- Jay A.
