[storm] sqlite3_enable_load_extension

[Pietro Abate]

Hi all.

I'm using storm with python2.5 and I have a problem with the sqlite3
extension api. In order to enable the extension loading, I need to call
this library function : sqlite3_enable_load_extension . Unfortunately,
this is not supported in python 2.5 (it will in python 2.6).

To get aroudn this problem I'm trying to build a small python binding
around this C call. I'm using swig to make my life a bit easier. However
I'm a bit stuck when I try to invoke my function passing a storm
connection object. I've attached the code in a tgz to this email.

Briefly, if sqlitext is my module, I'd like to call my function as :

storm.create_database(db_url)
store = storm.Store(database)
sqlitext.enable_extension(store,1)

where enable_extension looks like : 

#include "sqlitext.h"

int enable_extension(Connection* self, int onoff) {
    return sqlite3_enable_load_extension(self->db, onoff);
}

and Connection is the struct as defined in _sqlite3/connection.h in the
python 2.5 source code. The result os storm.Store(database) should be
the result of the lower level python library ...

Is anybody able to help me ?

:)

ps: to compile the code you need swig and python-dev of course ...
