What is wxSQLite3?

wxSQLite3 is a C++ wrapper around the public domain SQLite 3.x database and is specifically designed for use in programs based on the wxWidgets library.

Several solutions already exist to access SQLite databases. To name just a few:

  • wxSQLite : This is a wxWidgets wrapper for version 2.8.x of SQLite. SQLite version 3.x has a lot more features - which are not supported by this wrapper.
  • CppSQLite : Not wxWidgets specific, but with (partial) support for the newer version 3.x of SQLite.
  • DatabaseLayer : This is a database abstraction providing a JDBC-like interface to database I/O. In the current version SQLite3, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Firebird, and ODBC database backends are supported.

The component wxSQLite3 was inspired by all three mentioned SQLite wrappers. wxSQLite3 does not try to hide the underlying database, in contrary almost all special features of the SQLite3 version 3.x are supported, like for example the creation of user defined scalar or aggregate functions.

Since SQLite stores strings in UTF-8 encoding, the wxSQLite3 methods provide automatic conversion between wxStrings and UTF-8 strings. The methods ToUTF8 and FromUTF8 of the wxString class (available since wxWidgets 2.8.4) are used for the conversion. Special care has to be taken if external administration tools are used to modify the database contents, since not all of these tools operate in Unicode or UTF-8 mode.

Note
With the release of SQLite version 3.32.0 on May 22, 2020 critical changes to the public SQLite code finally took officially effect, although they weren't officially announced. They were introduced on Feb 7, 2020: "Simplify the code by removing the unsupported and undocumented SQLITE_HAS_CODEC compile-time option". Since August 2020 a new implementation of an encryption extension, capable of supporting SQLite version 3.32.0 and later, is available as a separate project, SQLite3 Multiple Ciphers. Starting with the release of wxSQLite3 4.6.0 this new implementation will be used.
