Hi,

Oracle is distributing its BerkeleyDB including an interesting fusion 
with SQLite
where they take all from SQLite except the final storage engine b-tree 
and pager included.
As a product it is possible to obtain a dbsql binary that is a clone of 
sqlite3 command line
but working with BDB databases.

http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/products/berkeleydb/overview/sql-160887.html
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/products/berkeleydb/bdb-sqlite-comparison-wp-176431.pdf

unfortunately they are using a quite old version of SQLite, I think 
SQLite 3.5.9 according to the delivered sources

I have not found the reason why this "freeze" of the SQLite in the BDB 
sql variant.
Probably this fusion between the two engines is difficult to mantain due 
to changes in sqlite opcodes etc

does someone have more information, links etc about this upgrade 
possibilities ?
(e.g. compile dbsql using the lastest sqlite version)

thanks, regards
Alejandro
