29<li>Bug fix: There was an incorrect assert() in pager.c. The real code was
30 all correct (as far as is known) so everything should work OK if you
31 compile with -DNDEBUG=1. But without disability the assertions, there
32 could be a fault.</li>

42<li>Fix a serious bug in the INSERT command which was causing data to go
43 into the wrong columns if the data source was a SELECT and the INSERT
44 clauses specified its columns in some order other than the default.</li>
drhb419a922002-01-30 16:17:23 +0000[diff] [blame]45<li>Added the ability to resolve constraint conflicts is ways other than

47 clause for details.</li>
drhfa86c412002-02-02 15:01:15 +0000[diff] [blame]48<li>Temporary files are now automatically deleted by the operating system
49 when closed. There are no more dangling temporary files on a program
50 crash. (If the OS crashes, fsck will delete the file after reboot
51 under Unix. I do not know what happens under Windows.)</li>

112<li>Fix a bug in <b>CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE</b> which was causing the
113 table to be initially allocated in the main database file instead
114 of in the separate temporary file. This bug could cause the library
drhc38f3d52001-12-15 03:00:42 +0000[diff] [blame]115 to suffer an assertion failure and it could cause "page leaks" in the
drh4cbd68f2001-12-15 02:58:18 +0000[diff] [blame]116 main database file.

123 <b>sqlite_exec()</b> from returning SQLITE_PROTOCOL

147 (ex: "<b>&lt</b>", "<b>==</b>", etc.)

603<li>All database files to be modified by an UPDATE, INSERT or DELETE are
604now locked before any changes are made to any files.
605This makes it safe (I think) to access
606the same database simultaneously from multiple processes.</li>
607<li>The code appears stable so we are now calling it "beta".</li>

612(or threads)
613can access the same database simultaneously. More work needed in
614this area, though.</li>

626but it uses Unix shell globbing wildcards instead of the '%'
627and '_' wildcards of SQL.</li>
628<li>Added the <B>COPY</b> command patterned after
629<a href="http://www.postgresql.org/">PostgreSQL</a> so that SQLite
630can now read the output of the <b>pg_dump</b> database dump utility
631of PostgreSQL.</li>
