sqlite - DLL TO LIB source

** must insure that no other SQLite interfaces are invoked by other
** threads while sqlite3_config() is running.  Furthermore, sqlite3_config()
** may only be invoked prior to library initialization using
** [sqlite3_initialize()] or after shutdown by [sqlite3_shutdown()].
** Note, however, that sqlite3_config() can be called as part of the
** implementation of an application-defined [sqlite3_os_init()].
**
** The first argument to sqlite3_config() is an integer
** [SQLITE_CONFIG_SINGLETHREAD | configuration option] that determines
** what property of SQLite is to be configured.  Subsequent arguments
** vary depending on the [SQLITE_CONFIG_SINGLETHREAD | configuration option]
** in the first argument.
**
** When a configuration option is set, sqlite3_config() returns [SQLITE_OK].
** If the option is unknown or SQLite is unable to set the option
** then this routine returns a non-zero [error code].

**
** The sqlite3_db_config() interface is used to make configuration
** changes to a [database connection].  The interface is similar to
** [sqlite3_config()] except that the changes apply to a single
** [database connection] (specified in the first argument).  The
** sqlite3_db_config() interface can only be used immediately after
** the database connection is created using [sqlite3_open()],
** [sqlite3_open16()], or [sqlite3_open_v2()].  
**
** The second argument to sqlite3_db_config(D,V,...)  is the
** configuration verb - an integer code that indicates what
** aspect of the [database connection] is being configured.
** The only choice for this value is [SQLITE_DBCONFIG_LOOKASIDE].
** New verbs are likely to be added in future releases of SQLite.
** Additional arguments depend on the verb.

** CAPI3REF: Memory Allocation Routines {H10155} <S20120>
** EXPERIMENTAL
**
** An instance of this object defines the interface between SQLite
** and low-level memory allocation routines.
**
** This object is used in only one place in the SQLite interface.
** A pointer to an instance of this object is the argument to
** [sqlite3_config()] when the configuration option is
** [SQLITE_CONFIG_MALLOC].  By creating an instance of this object
** and passing it to [sqlite3_config()] during configuration, an
** application can specify an alternative memory allocation subsystem
** for SQLite to use for all of its dynamic memory needs.
**
** Note that SQLite comes with a built-in memory allocator that is
** perfectly adequate for the overwhelming majority of applications
** and that this object is only useful to a tiny minority of applications
** with specialized memory allocation requirements.  This object is
** also used during testing of SQLite in order to specify an alternative
** memory allocator that simulates memory out-of-memory conditions in
** order to verify that SQLite recovers gracefully from such
** conditions.
**
** The xMalloc, xFree, and xRealloc methods must work like the
** malloc(), free(), and realloc() functions from the standard library.
**
** xSize should return the allocated size of a memory allocation
** previously obtained from xMalloc or xRealloc.  The allocated size
** is always at least as big as the requested size but may be larger.
**
** The xRoundup method returns what would be the allocated size of
** a memory allocation given a particular requested size.  Most memory
** allocators round up memory allocations at least to the next multiple
** of 8.  Some allocators round up to a larger multiple or to a power of 2.
**
** The xInit method initializes the memory allocator.  (For example,
** it might allocate any require mutexes or initialize internal data
** structures.  The xShutdown method is invoked (indirectly) by
** [sqlite3_shutdown()] and should deallocate any resources acquired
** by xInit.  The pAppData pointer is used as the only parameter to
** xInit and xShutdown.

**
** <dt>SQLITE_CONFIG_SERIALIZED</dt>
** <dd>There are no arguments to this option.  This option enables
** all mutexes including the recursive

** In this mode (which is the default when SQLite is compiled with
** [SQLITE_THREADSAFE=1]) the SQLite library will itself serialize access
** to [database connections] and [prepared statements] so that the
** application is free to use the same [database connection] or the
** same [prepared statement] in different threads at the same time.
** See the [threading mode] documentation for additional information.</dd>
**
** <dt>SQLITE_CONFIG_MALLOC</dt>
** <dd>This option takes a single argument which is a pointer to an

** structure is filled with the currently defined memory allocation routines.
** This option can be used to overload the default memory allocation
** routines with a wrapper that simulations memory allocation failure or
** tracks memory usage, for example.</dd>
**
** <dt>SQLITE_CONFIG_MEMSTATUS</dt>
** <dd>This option takes single argument of type int, interpreted as a 
** boolean, which enables or disables the collection of memory allocation

** </dd>
**
** <dt>SQLITE_CONFIG_SCRATCH</dt>
** <dd>This option specifies a static memory buffer that SQLite can use for
** scratch memory.  There are three arguments:  A pointer to the memory, the
** size of each scratch buffer (sz), and the number of buffers (N).  The sz
** argument must be a multiple of 16. The sz parameter should be a few bytes
** larger than the actual scratch space required due internal overhead.
** The first
** argument should point to an allocation of at least sz*N bytes of memory.
** SQLite will use no more than one scratch buffer at once per thread, so
** N should be set to the expected maximum number of threads.  The sz
** parameter should be 6 times the size of the largest database page size.
** Scratch buffers are used as part of the btree balance operation.  If
** The btree balancer needs additional memory beyond what is provided by
** scratch buffers or if no scratch buffer space is specified, then SQLite
** goes to [sqlite3_malloc()] to obtain the memory it needs.</dd>
**
** <dt>SQLITE_CONFIG_PAGECACHE</dt>
** <dd>This option specifies a static memory buffer that SQLite can use for
** the database page cache with the default page cache implemenation.  
** This configuration should not be used if an application-define page
** cache implementation is loaded using the SQLITE_CONFIG_PCACHE option.
** There are three arguments to this option: A pointer to the
** memory, the size of each page buffer (sz), and the number of pages (N).
** The sz argument must be a power of two between 512 and 32768.  The first
** argument should point to an allocation of at least sz*N bytes of memory.
** SQLite will use the memory provided by the first argument to satisfy its
** memory needs for the first N pages that it adds to cache.  If additional
** page cache memory is needed beyond what is provided by this option, then
** SQLite goes to [sqlite3_malloc()] for the additional storage space.
** The implementation might use one or more of the N buffers to hold 
** memory accounting information. </dd>

** <dt>SQLITE_CONFIG_HEAP</dt>
** <dd>This option specifies a static memory buffer that SQLite will use
** for all of its dynamic memory allocation needs beyond those provided
** for by [SQLITE_CONFIG_SCRATCH] and [SQLITE_CONFIG_PAGECACHE].
** There are three arguments: A pointer to the memory, the number of
** bytes in the memory buffer, and the minimum allocation size.  If
** the first pointer (the memory pointer) is NULL, then SQLite reverts
** to using its default memory allocator (the system malloc() implementation),
** undoing any prior invocation of [SQLITE_CONFIG_MALLOC].  If the
** memory pointer is not NULL and either [SQLITE_ENABLE_MEMSYS3] or
** [SQLITE_ENABLE_MEMSYS5] are defined, then the alternative memory
** allocator is engaged to handle all of SQLites memory allocation needs.</dd>
**
** <dt>SQLITE_CONFIG_MUTEX</dt>
** <dd>This option takes a single argument which is a pointer to an

** the mutex routines built into SQLite.</dd>

** <dt>SQLITE_CONFIG_GETMUTEX</dt>
** <dd>This option takes a single argument which is a pointer to an

** routines with a wrapper used to track mutex usage for performance
** profiling or testing, for example.</dd>
**
** <dt>SQLITE_CONFIG_LOOKASIDE</dt>
** <dd>This option takes two arguments that determine the default

**
** <dt>SQLITE_CONFIG_PCACHE</dt>
** <dd>This option takes a single argument which is a pointer to
