I've been Googling around for _small_, flat file (no server processes),
SQL-like database which can be easily access from Python. Speed and
perforamnce are of no issue, most important is that all data is contained
within single file and no server binary has to run in order to use the
dbase. Oh, and I'm using Python under Cygwin.
Ofcourse, ease of use and simplicity is most welcomed :). I'm currently
playing around SQLite+PySQLite and BerkeleyDB, but those two seem like an
overkill :(.
Thanks in advance...

There are some suggestions in my EPC 2004 DB presentation: http://www.thinkware.se/epc2004db/epc04_mly_db.pdf

So although the Windows install of Pysqlite bundles a .pyd that includes
the statically linked sqlite library, other platforms do not? I agree
that would represent a potentially annoying extra setup step.

If you need it to be SQL-like, SQLite seems to be the right thing.
Tried that one, but had some problems setting things up. On the other
hand, BerkeleyDB + Pybsddb worked like a charm, with no setting up (under
Cygwin).
The problem is, Pybsddb is as badly documented as Windows Registry, no
examples, no tutorials, no nothing :(.
What about the standard module bsddb, then? It's not a /relational/ database
though, if that is what you're looking for. But it's simple to understand,
well documented, and unbelievably fast.

2. should be roubust and fast.
3. must be able to handle a bit large tables( upto 5000 rows)

Hi,
I would like to use flat file data storage instead of database. Since I

What text file extension is a safe one to store my data online and how
cost- and time-effective is this method (flat file data storage).
Anyone can share thoughts? Thanks

In my site I have a config table, (MySQL), with about 30 entries; the
data is loaded on every single page load. This is not the only call to
the db, (we do a total of about 8 calls to the db).
As with many configurations settings, once the options are set the
values will not change much.
So I thought it would be a good idea to move the data to a flat file.
I have written a small wrapper class to first look for the file, if it

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

This is as boiled down as I can make it.
