Comment on How to write SHA256Sum in C# (or MD5Sum, SHA1Sum) by David

Thanks for the article, it cleared up some of my confusion around some of the SHA-256 hash I was trying. I found this page while trying to track down that nasty ‘PlatformNotSupportedException’ error on google.

Comment on SQLite for C# – Part 8 – Loading CSV/Pipe into SQLite via command line by Gareth

These are really built into the SQLite3 application rather than the OLE-DB driver. So the simple answer is no, however if you look at the C# implementation they have ported the whole thing including the main program, via translation – so dont expect the code to be pretty, to C#. So you could lever that, or invoke the native SQLite3 application. It all depends on what you are trying to achieve!

There is a free community edition of NCover(1.5.8) which we are using but it sorely lacks in features when compared to the commercial one

A minor update – I haven’t tried it yet, but some recent tweaking in the dev branch is yielding improved perf for the .Net port. They are still trying to fix bugs though….

I’ve not come across that specifically, however if you are using the latest driver I would submit your question to the following forum.

http://sqlite.phxsoftware.com/forums/

The direct link to the bugs section is : http://sqlite.phxsoftware.com/forums/5.aspx

However before you submit your question/bug check to see if it has already been raised/answered – as it most likely will have been. Normally they are responsive and should be able to help,

Hope this helps,
Gareth

Hi there!

Great tutorial and theory on SQLite.

However, there’s something I still haven’t figured out, and hoped maybe you could help me with this.

I have set up a WinForm application (C#) with an SQLite DB attached to it. Let’s call the DB ‘Mates’ and the table ‘bestFriends’. It has two columns, ‘firstName’ and ‘lastName’. I get my program to show the data from the table in both detail and datagrid views.

So here comes the problem. The ‘SaveItem’-button that VS put in has worked when I’ve used MS Access DBs, but just causes the program to crash when I use it with SQLite. Do you have any suggestions as to how I could make a save-button or edit the one that VS already put in?

Your help would be greatly appreciated,

BronskyB

You can perform encryption through your connection string, or via pragmas. As you are using C++ and not C# you may want to look at:

Does that help?

I’ve only downloaded it enough to see how well the translation went. Got to say I dont like the generated code too much. Outside of that I’ve not had much to do with it. I would like to really see a native version as that avoids the whole 64 bit vs 32 bit question, and I would hope it would also help with performance (although the charp-sqlite doesnt reflect any performance gains). My hope is that the Mono team include it, or MS includes it as a native implementation

Have you played with the .Net port of SQLite? http://code.google.com/p/csharp-sqlite/

I’d be interested in knowing if you noticed any differences…

Thank you! for the very informative and useful writeup. Even those Wrox and Wiley’s heavy and expensive books couldn’t cleared what you have done in few lines.
