Package sqlite is a cgo-free port of SQLite.
SQLite is an in-process implementation of a self-contained, serverless, zero-configuration, transactional SQL database engine.
This project is sponsored by Schleibinger Geräte Teubert u. Greim GmbH by allowing one of the maintainers to work on it also in office hours.

- Q: How can I write to a database concurrently without getting the
database is lockederror (orSQLITE_BUSY)?- A: You can't. The C sqlite implementation does not allow concurrent writes, and this libary does not modify that behaviour. You can, however, use DB.SetMaxOpenConns(1) so that only 1 connection is ever used by the
DB, allowing concurrent access to DB without making the writes concurrent. More information on issues #65 and #106.
