As far as I can remember, the Python API for SQLite is a pure Python library;
wxPython provides you just with the ability to construct user interfaces.

I've used both Python and the wxPython library to create a home-grown photo
database and search facility. I didn't need SQLite in the end, as my database is
currently small enough to fit in memory as Python data structures (instantiated
by reading XML files containing my photo data). It may be worth checking out
this option if your database is relatively small.

However, in retrospect I would throw the whole lot away and be tempted to use
Mozilla technology (i.e. XULRunner, XUL and Javascript) to write the front end.
There's a simple Mozilla-provided Javascript API to read and write to a SQLite
database. I'm now converting a Micro$oft Access database I wrote some time ago
into this technology, and apart from the lack of modules in Javascript (I'm
having to define everything as an object in order to organise the program
variable namespaces), it's been a fairly painless affair. Mozilla technology is
cross-platform; if Firefox runs on an OS, then so does the Mozilla technology.

Of course, if you need to stay with Python, then this post is of no help at all
:-) A good reason to stay with Python is that it's such a wonderful language
(IMHO).

Hi,

  While running Mozilla Firefox 3 on AIX platform, the application crashed with
below stacktrace information.

sqlite3_result_value() at 0x9000000077bb084

Note : The .mozconfig had the line -> ac_add_options --disable-debug

How to go about debugging this further ?

I did see some debug options for sqlite3 such as SQLITE_DEBUG and
SQLITE_MEMDEBUG. I tried setting these ( -DSQLITE_DEBUG=2 -DSQLITE_MEMDEBUG=1)
in the makefile of mozilla/db/sqlite3/src with below line in .mozconfig.

ac_add_options --disable-debug

But I was not able to get any debug statements or tracefile generated.

Could you please advise how to go about the same ?

Thanks,
Shailendra

can someone tell me where can i get some information about sqlite
internals please?
