SQLite backup API wrapper

Recommended Posts

there is no error loading the DLL or anything else, it just fails as i posted above. I'm trying to learn how to load the disk db to memory and work it from :memory: .. 1 sec. .. 

PS: ill do the  "pragma page_size"  and post the results.

yes, _SQLite_QuerySingleRow with "pragma page_size" returns current page size.

yes, it's different:

------------------------------------------------
Running SQLite version 3.8.11.1
$hDB: pragma page_size = 1024
- _SQLite_Backup(): TimerDiff: 38256.9576890637
Backup status: 0 0
$hDbCopy: pragma page_size = 1024
Check status: 0 0
Vacuum status: 0 0
Done 256/810 (31.6%)
Done 512/810 (63.21%)
Done 768/810 (94.81%)
Done 810/810 (100%)
Backup status: 0 0
------------------------------------------------
Running SQLite version 3.19.3
$hDB: pragma page_size = 4096
- _SQLite_Backup(): TimerDiff: 0.0938820877202833
Backup status: 0 0
$hDbCopy: pragma page_size = no return value
Check status: 0 0
Vacuum status: 2 0
Backup status: 2 0
------------------------------------------------

how can I set it to a different default ?

Ah, got it!

My mistake is in the line where I compare the DLL version.

Use a leading zero (silly quick workaround)

If $RetVal < '3.06.11' Then Return SetError(2, 0, $SQLITE_MISUSE)

or more correctly __SQLite_VersCmp (from the std UDF).

I apologize for the bad code.

Well I wrote this when I was developping several apps in a hurry and thought it was worth sharing, but didn't polish it as I should have done.

Since then I no longer have to use AutoIt for my needs and have only little spare time.

If $RetVal < '3.6.11' Then Return SetError(2, 0, $SQLITE_MISUSE) < is fine

If you can give me the command to do it

ConsoleWrite('$hDB: SET pragma page_size = ' & pragma_page_size($hDstDbCon, 1024) & @CRLF )
ConsoleWrite('$hDB: GET pragma page_size = ' & pragma_page_size($hDstDbCon) & @CRLF )

Func pragma_page_size($h__DB, $iSize = 0)
    Local $row, $sSql = "pragma page_size;"
    If $iSize Then $sSql = "pragma page_size = "& $iSize &";"
    _SQLite_QuerySingleRow($h__DB,$sSql, $row)
    If $row <> '' Then
        $rowsSelected = $row[0]
        Return $rowsSelected
    EndIf
    Return "no return value"
EndFunc

got it :)

;;========================
;;
;; SQLite backup examples
;;
;;
;; The SQLite backup API is intended to perform a backgroud backup of a database while it
;; is being used by other processes.  This live backup is a essentially a _slow_ process.
;; If you're in a hurry, then close your database and copy the database file as a whole,
;; or specify -1 as the page block size.  It will copy the whole base in one run but be
;; warned that then SQLite will hold an exclusive lock on the source database, which may
;; be difficult to obtain or may go against availability constraints for other processes.
;;
;; To use successfully (without locking errors), you have to take usual precautions, just
;; like with other shared resource.  Use _SQLite_SetTimeout with ample delay and wrap any
;; read/modify/write operations in an IMMEDIATE transaction. Groups (tight loops) of inserts
;; should always use a transaction anyway, for mere efficiency.  Of course, if there are
;; no other processes using the database, it's much faster to copy the database file like
;; any other file.
;;
;; This example shows that a backup can go on with reads and writes occuring concurrently
;; but you'll notice that the backup restarts every time it 'sees' that the database has
;; been written to.  If you expect that the rate of writes won't give the backup enough
;; time to complete, then the backup process will never finish, defeating its purpose.
;;
;; You can use this function to backup disk or memory databases to/from disk or memory.
;; There is provision to specify the name of source/destination database(s) to make the
;; backup act on 'main', temp' or any attached database which has been given an alias.
;;
;; To fully understand the process, please refer to the current SQLite documentation.
;;
;; Default parameters seem to give decent performance and reflect most usual cases.  Be
;; wise if you modify them: a sleeptime of 10ms is certainly not enough, 1 000 000 000ms
;; is probably too much...

Did not test x64 but I don't use it anyway.
Thanks for explaining the page size, I never took that into consideration ( I was clueless of it ).
So I learned a few things today ;)

Ah, got it!

My mistake is in the line where I compare the DLL version.

Use a leading zero (silly quick workaround)

If $RetVal < '3.06.11' Then Return SetError(2, 0, $SQLITE_MISUSE)

or more correctly __SQLite_VersCmp (from the std UDF).

I apologize for the bad code.

I was also facing the same issue, when I tried the new SQLITE 3.20 DLL. I replaced the line with _VersionCompare Function.

Replaced this line:

If $RetVal < '3.6.11' Then Return SetError(2, 0, $SQLITE_MISUSE)

with :

#include <Misc.au3>
If (_VersionCompare($RetVal, '3.6.11') < 0) Then Return SetError(2, 0, $SQLITE_MISUSE)

and it fixed the issue

Of course a newer version will perform better (I mean faster or offering more features), but it won't change the fact that you'll get the same error.

Your best bet is to change the page size of DB1.

Thanks for the support and for this excellent UDF @jchd

I have used the latest SQLITE 3.20 DLL now, and changed the page size of DB to 4096 as well, and now, everything is working.

Infact, the copy to Memory speed is also around 5 times faster with the page size = 4096, and with 3.20 DLL.

The change in SQLite library default page size has been made to accomodate the improvement of hardware and match new hard disks (rotating or solid) features as well as typical OS/filesystem sizes. And, unsurprisingly, page size significantly impact performance by impacting the number of I/O and cache(s) operations.

For instance, most SSDs use a 4kb blocksize (typical NAND blocksize) and using a smaller size decreases performance by a large factor.

Remember SQLite is by far the most widespread RDBMS engine ever as it's  used in a myriad of embedded devices like all smartphones and all tablets, e-books, TVs, GPSs, ADSL/cable/fiber modems and decoders, industrial devices, ..., as well as numerous desktop applications and small or huge websites. The choice of sensible defaults workable for all use cases in this large spectrum is pretty hard and that's why the library is so configurable. It's clear that specific applications may need to massage settings to drain the best performance out of it, like a small portable device running a primitive OS w/o even a filesystem, or a huge website (can't name it) operating a 126Tb and growing SQLite DB with an average of 45 simultaneous connections 24/7.

And all that for free!
