Greetings,
I am experimenting on Linux with OOo 2.3 Base and Sqlite3 databases,
using ODBC. I have already managed to access from Base a test.db
sqlite3 file I had created with a script, and to create forms and
reports. Of course, when I saved the database, I got a wonderful
"Test.odb" file, that is a zip archive containing xml files and other
stuff.
The question is simply if it is "safe" to interact with the same .db
file both from Base and from other applications. By "safe" I mean:
- if I close Base, modify the .db database with a script and reopen
with Base the .odb file, nothing bad happens
- all changes made via Base/odbc to the .db file are OK, that is
syntactically correct and don't corrupt the database in any way
- all of the above if Base and the other application, say a daemon or
cron job, access the database simultneously
My understanding is that everything should be "safe" as defined above,
but of course I'd rather have confirmation before doing anything
critical.
TIA,
Marco
