SQLite 3.1.3
19 Feb. 2005: is out the new version of SQLite.
SQLite is a small C library that implements a self-contained, embeddable, zero-configuration SQL database engine. Features include:
- Transactions are atomic, consistent, isolated, and durable (ACID) even after system crashes and power failures.
- Zero-configuration - no setup or administration needed.
- Implements most of SQL92. (Features not supported)
- A complete database is stored in a single disk file.
- Database files can be freely shared between machines with different byte orders.
- Supports databases up to 2 terabytes (241 bytes) in size.
- Sizes of strings and BLOBs limited only by available memory.
- Small code footprint: less than 30K lines of C code, less than 250KB code space (gcc on i486)
- Faster than popular client/server database engines for most common operations.
- Simple, easy to use API.
- TCL bindings included. Bindings for many other languages available separately.
- Well-commented source code with over 95% test coverage.
- Self-contained: no external dependencies.
- Sources are in the public domain. Use for any purpose.
The SQLite distribution comes with a standalone command-line access program (sqlite) that can be used to administer an SQLite database and which serves as an example of how to use the SQLite library.
