Then IMO the documentation for either sqlite3_prepare_xx or SQLITE_BUSY should state this. It would have been helpful in my case, I was pulling my hair looking at the transaction model which was sound.

SQLite has to keep the state of your SELECT available until you tell it you're done with that SELECT. After all, you might look at the results you have retrieved and decide to make some changes based on what you see there. This means SQLite has to stop everything from changing the database. Therefore it locks it.
