Use of C#-SQLite library #262

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What new or enhanced feature are you proposing?

Using the csharp-sqlite library instead of the existing library.  C#-Sqlite is 
written in C# and is 100% compatible with SQLite (according to the unit tests). 
 It's SQLite written in C#.

I'd be more than happy to make this change.

What goal would this enhancement help you achieve?

It removes the dependence on a 32-bit or 64-bit SQLite DLL.  After all, isn't 
platform independence one of the reasons we use C#?  Dealing with the 32/64 bit 
issue is a pain when deploying across that barrier.

The downside is perhaps the code will go stale.  This isn't much of an issue 
since this is a risk even with the existing library.  In fact, the existing one 
did go dormant until SQLite took over maintenance.  There was even talk about 
it using the C#-SQLite library instead of the SQLite DLLs.

According to the project FAQ[1], it is not considred ready for prime time:

Q: Is this ready for prime time? 
A: Don't know -- let me know what you think 

Perhaps that's a tongue-in-cheek?

Why not clone the ELMAH Sandbox and add an ErrorLog implementation there on top 
of C#-SQLite? This has three benefits. One, we don't have to worry about 
immediate risks. Two, it can be field tested, and three, you can start to 
contributing right away.
