#95304 — SQLite and cursors

Does SQLite has cursor adaptor or filesystem like Visual Foxpro?

The cursor system firsts use memory to create a SQL table. When the 
table exceeds certain sizes, it will start using disk storage.

As you've been repeatedly reminding others, this newsgroup is for
discussion of C programming.  I don't know whether there's a newsgroup
that discusses SQLite, but there are certainly appropriate forums,
including Stack Overflow.

(A side note: There's a convention of limiting signature blocks to 4
lines.  It's not enforced, but you might consider trimming yours.)

It's hard to avoid 3rd-party libraries to write something useful these 
days. SO... :)

Later...

True - but it's trivial to find forums where experts in the hehaviour of
those libraries are available to talk with you. Going to a forum where
people are less likely to be familiar with the library makes sense only
if you want to get fewer correct answers, and more incorrect ones.
If you are, for some reason, deliberately seeking out incorrect answers
to your question, I recommend going farther afield, such as posting to a
newsgroup about religion (turn-about is fair play).

True.  But, you're more likely to get knowledgeable answers in a forum that 
discusses that particular 3rd-party library.

If every question about every 3rd-party library were to be on-topic here, 
just because you can access it from a C program, then you'd never be able to 
find anything you needed through the noise.  (There's enough noise as it is.)

Sorry, that was poorly phrased.  I should have said that this
newsgroup is for discussion of the C programming language.

This isn't just about reducing the noise level of this newsgroup,
though that's certainly part of it.  It's also about you getting
the information you need.  A lot of us here know C very well, but
most of us are not experts on SQLite.  I for one would have to do
some research just to understand what you're asking.

In the particular case of SQLite, the sqlite.org web site mentions
several mailing lists, one of which would undoubtedly be a good
place to ask your question -- though a well chosen Google search
might save you the trouble of posting your question anywhere.
