I posted this to the sqlite list but I suspect there are more C oriented users on that list than Python, hopefully someone here can shed some light on this one.
I have created a python module that I import within several other modules that simply opens a connection to an sqlite file and defines several methods which each open a cursor before they either select or insert data. As the module opens a connection, wherever I import it I call a commit against the connection after invoking any methods that insert or change data. Seems I've made a proper mess, one of the modules causes a 5 second delay at import (big indicator there) and one of the modules calls a method that yields data while calling other methods as it iterates. Each of these methods opens its own cursor. One of which during some processing calls another method which opens a cursor and creates a temp table and this corrupts the top level cursor and causes its yield to exit early. If I open a debugger just as the top level method begins to yield, I can pull all the expected records. It seems to be one of the nested methods that leverages the singleton connection to the sqlite db, once it opens its own cursor and creates a temp table, things go south. Comment out its cursor and code and things work. A bit vague I know, but does anyone see the obvious mistake? I assumed the module setting up a singleton connection was a perfectly viable way to accomplish this? Thanks! jlc -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
