I think SOLite intentionally fills the memory with
garbage as part of its secure deletion when the
database is closed.

Is there an LC function that clears trash from memory? Does "hasMemory"?
If not, it seems like that would be a nice feature.

hmmmyou can try set the pragma to zero out flag (i am pretty sure there

its strange that it does not 'delete' from memory. Are we sure on
this?. is this dependent on the garbage collector in LC?

I have been testing SQLite 3 using the command line interface and it
looks to me like SQLite is designed to securely delete the memory of
the database automatically after it closes the database.
I could be wrong but if you can’t read the memory it is probably already
securely deleted when the data
I am not saying I know how to do it but are
you able to read the memory like you can
with a regular variable?
If so maybe you can just assign each block
of memory a null character. If you actually
can get the memory address of the data it
would be easy to delete it using C code.
