DESCRIPTION:

 This package allows to use the Sqlite library from ocaml. The
 Sqlite library allows to create applications with embedded
 sql database, i.e. no external sql server is required. 

 Sqlite is available from http://www.sqlite.org 

REQUIREMENTS:

 - ocaml 3.06 or above (older versions are not checked but might work)
 - ocamlfind package
 - sqlite library (tested on 2.8.1 version, should work on 2.8.2)
   - libsqlite.a installed in /usr/lib or /usr/local/lib. If it
     is installed somewhere else, modify configure.ac accordingly.
   - sqlite.h installed in /usr/include or /usr/local/include.
     If it is installed somewhere else, modify configure.ac accordingly.
   - for versions other than 2.8.1 error codes list should be checked.

INSTALLATION:

 To build and install the bindings: 
 ./configure   # Makefile & META files
 make bytecode # bytecode library
 make opt      # native library
 make doc      # documentation
 make all      # both native and bytecode
 make install  # install
 make remove   # uninstall

 To build a test example:
 ocamlfind ocamlopt -package sqlite -linkpkg test.ml

 Test example is rather ugly and will be replaced someday. It was written
 mostly to provocate OCaml GC when testing the binding for bugs related
 to memory allocation.

LICENSE:

 The package is released under the MIT license, see COPYING file for
 details.

CREDITS:

 David Brown created the first sqlite binding for ocaml and posted it
 to the caml-list when this a bit more general binding was far from being
 complete. His code and comments helped much to improve it.

 Shawn Wagner <shawnw@speakeasy.org> and Christian Lindig <lindig@gaertner.de>
 created MySQL binding for ocaml. That binding was used as a reference when
 implementing the build files of ocaml-sqlite.

 Mikhail Fedotov wrote ocaml-sqlite itself.

 Evan Martin is now maintaining it.
