Well, I gave it a go this week! I last wrote C 2 decades ago, and those
were simple programs. Digging into the PHP source code is a fun challenge.
I worked out how to create a new class [1] and to get PDOSQLite to extend
PDO [2]. Extending PDO took some thought; Reflection extension does it but
all classes are defined in one file. SPL, DOM etc also do it with their
classes. Eventually I saw how SimpleXML did it and was able to apply that.
I've got stuck with adding `PDO::connect('sqlite:...')` [3]. Can someone
take a look and give me advice?
