Personally I wish SQLite would fail upon open or perhaps on first write if it cannot write the temporary file. I think this would make it easier for programmers to detect and deal with this kind of issue. Maybe make it an explicit compile-time option to wait until the temporary file is larger than 64KiB before opening the temp file. Just a thought. _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@mailinglists.sqlite.org http://mailinglists.sqlite.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
