About 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 tebibytes
(241 bytes) in size.
- Strings and BLOBs up to 2 gibibytes (231 bytes)
in size.
- Small code footprint: less than 250KiB fully configured or less
than 150KiB with optional features omitted.
- 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.

Upgrading is recommended.
2007-Jan-27 - Version 3.3.12
The first published build of the previous version used the wrong
set of source files. Consequently, many people downloaded a build
that was labeled as "3.3.11" but was really 3.3.10. Version 3.3.12
is released to clear up the ambiguity. A couple more bugs have
also been fixed and
PRAGMA integrity_check has been enhanced.

Version 3.3.11 fixes for a few more problems in version 3.3.9 that
version 3.3.10 failed to catch. Upgrading is recommended.
2007-Jan-9 - Version 3.3.10
