I discourage coding sqlite in Rust, Here are the reasons that sqlite developers mentioned:
- Rust needs to mature a little more, stop changing so fast, and move further toward being old and boring.
- Rust needs to demonstrate that it can be used to create general-purpose libraries that are callable from all other programming languages.
- Rust needs to demonstrate that it can produce object code that works on obscure embedded devices, including devices that lack an operating system.
- Rust needs to pick up the necessary tooling that enables one to do 100% branch coverage testing of the compiled binaries.
Rust needs a mechanism to recover gracefully from OOM errors.
- Rust needs to demonstrate that it can do the kinds of work that C does in SQLite without a significant speed penalty.
nice project, S3lite can work on all platforms? Linux/Windows/Mac? also what is the internal architecture of s3lite? As far as I know sqlite using b-tree not b+tree , what is reason behind selecting b+ tree ?
