I understand that performing a SELECT and nested COMMIT on the same table is
not supported in sqlite, but I would have expected a COMMIT on a separate
table would not be a problem. Some test code in python however reveals that
performing the COMMIT disrupts the SELECT statement, and causes duplicate
data to be returned.
If this is not a supported operation, would you mind pointing me to the docs
so I can understand it better?
Example
#!/usr/bin/env python
import sqlite3 as sq
db = sq.connect(':memory:')
db.execute('CREATE TABLE tbl (col INTEGER)')
db.execute('CREATE TABLE tbl2 (col INTEGER)')
db.executemany('INSERT INTO tbl (col) VALUES (?)', [(0,), (1,), (2,)])
db.commit()
print('count=' + str(db.execute('SELECT count(*) FROM tbl').fetchone()[0]))
# Read and print the values just inserted into tbl
for col in db.execute('SELECT col FROM tbl'):
print(col)
db.execute('INSERT INTO tbl2 VALUES (?)', col)
db.commit()
print('count=' + str(db.execute('SELECT count(*) FROM tbl').fetchone()[0]))
The output is:
count=3
(0,)
(1,)
(0,)
(1,)
(2,)
count=3
