SQLite_File 0.02

SQLite_File is a Perl module that allows a hash or an array to be tied to a SQLite DB via DBI plus DBD::SQLite, in a way that emulates many features of Berkeley-DB-based DB_File.

In particular, this module offers another choice for ActiveState users, who may find it difficult to get a working DB_File installed, but can't failover to SDBM due to its record length restrictions. SQLite_File requires DBD::SQLite, which has SQLite built-in -- no external application install required.

SYNOPSIS

 # tie a simple hash to a SQLite DB file
 my Û;
 tie(Û, 'SQLite_File', 'my.db');

 # tie an array
 my @db;
 tie(@db, 'SQLite_File', 'my.db');

 # tie to a tempfile
 tie(Û, 'SQLite_File', undef);

 # get attributes of the tied object

 $SQLite_handle = (tied Û)->dbh;
 $db_file = (tied Û)->file;

 # use as an option in AnyDBM_File
 @AnyDBM_File::ISA = qw( DB_File SQLite_File SDBM );
 my Û;
 tie(Û, 'AnyDBM_File', 'my.db', @dbmargs)
