84 table to be initially allocated in the main database file instead
85 of in the separate temporary file. This bug could cause the library
drhc38f3d52001-12-15 03:00:42 +0000[diff] [blame]86 to suffer an assertion failure and it could cause "page leaks" in the
drh4cbd68f2001-12-15 02:58:18 +0000[diff] [blame]87 main database file.
