Hi,
On my Debian stable 64-bit system, SQLite3 has FTS (full text search) enabled
(although at version 3 rather than the recommended version 4):
Python 3.2.3 (default, Feb 20 2013, 14:44:27) [GCC 4.7.2] on linux2
Type "copyright", "credits" or "license()" for more information.
>>> import sqlite3
>>> con = sqlite3.connect(":memory:")
>>> cur = con.execute("pragma compile_options")
>>> for row in cur:
print(row)
...
('ENABLE_FTS3',)
...
But on Windows when I use the official Python 3.3 32-bit binary from
www.python.org this is not enabled.
My guess is that on Debian, the packagers install a full SQLite 3 and the
Python package uses that. But on Windows I think the Python packagers bundle
their own SQLite (quite rightly since it might not already be installed).
I'd like the Windows binary to include SQLite 3 with FTS4 support, but I don't
know how much work that involves or if it would make the Python .msi file too
big?
Anyway, I guess if anyone else is interested in this they could perhaps reply
to indicate this?
If you're curious about the feature, it is documented here:
