During the last two months I wrote a new implementation of pysqlite that should be as compatible to the existing one as possible, but is based on ctypes. The goal is to (hopefully) provide PyPy with an implementation of the sqlite3 module in its standard library. It would be great if you could test how this release works for you. The API *should* be compatible to pysqlite 2.x in theory. Fancy stuff like user functions/aggregates and hooks are missing because 1) I was too either to dumb to implement that using ctypes without abusing ctypes 2) These would require using ctypes' py_object which won't work on PyPy anyway You can download everything straight from my Mercurial repository: http://hg.ghaering.de/pysqlite3/archive/4d9bd0aea479.zip http://hg.ghaering.de/pysqlite3/archive/4d9bd0aea479.tar.gz You will need a recent SQLite release for this (I believe 3.5 or higher). For Windows, be sure to place the SQLite DLL somewhere it can be found (like c:\windows or something). Have fun! -- Gerhard
