Don't find SQLite in 2.8.1 Beta

Post by Tiemo » Tue Apr 17, 2007 5:24 pm

I did install 2.8.1 Beta, but don't find the new standard plugin SQLite and no documentation about SQLite. Do I miss something? Or do I have to install it separatly? What do I have to do?
Thanks?

Hi Tiemo,

You can still download the SQLite, AltFont and AltBrowser plugins with a valid license:

Hi Mark,
I got the information that SQLite is indeed integrated in 2.8.1 and can be accessed by revDatabase, but still without documentation
Thank you

Dear mdoub,

Although revSQlite (or altSQLite) may be slightly different from the original SQLite, which you can find at http://www.sqlite.org , I assume the source code was taken from this web site and wrapped in an external for Revolution.

This means that the following documtation should apply to revSQLite:

http://www.sqlite.org/lang.html

The documentation needed to execute the syntax is in Revolution's built-in docs. Search for commands and functions containing sql, database and revdb.

Best,

The MySQL documentation is very good and might come in handy. I use MySQL and don't know exactly to which extend SQLite resembles MySQL.

It looks like Sqlite 3.2.8. This is a bit dissapointing as it is over 2 years old. :(
