+******************************************************************************
+**
+** This file contains demonstration code. Nothing in this file gets compiled
+** or linked into the SQLite library unless you use a non-standard option:
+**
+** -DSQLITE_SERVER=1
+**
+** The configure script will never generate a Makefile with the option
+** above. You will need to manually modify the Makefile if you want to
+** include any of the code from this file in your project. Or, at your
+** option, you may copy and paste the code from this file and
+** thereby avoiding a recompile of SQLite.
+**
+**
+** This source file demonstrates how to use SQLite to create an SQL database
+** server thread in a multiple-threaded program. One or more client threads
+** send messages to the server thread and the server thread processes those
+** messages in the order received and returns the results to the client.
+**
+** One might ask: "Why bother? Why not just let each thread connect
+** to the database directly?" There are a several of reasons to
+** prefer the client/server approach.
+**
+** (1) Some systems (ex: Redhat9) have broken threading implementations
+** that prevent SQLite database connections from being used in
+** a thread different from the one where they were created. With
+** the client/server approach, all database connections are created
+** and used within the server thread. Client calls to the database
+** can be made from multiple threads (though not at the same time!)
+**
+** (2) Beginning with SQLite version 3.3.0, when two or more
+** connections to the same database occur within the same thread,
+** they can optionally share their database cache. This reduces
+** I/O and memory requirements. Cache shared is controlled using
+** the sqlite3_enable_shared_cache() API.
+**
+** (3) Database connections on a shared cache use table-level locking
+** instead of file-level locking for improved concurrency.
+**
+** (4) Database connections on a shared cache can by optionally
+** set to READ UNCOMMITTED isolation. (The default isolation for
+** SQLite is SERIALIZABLE.) When this occurs, readers will
+** never be blocked by a writer and writers will not be
+** blocked by readers. There can still only be a single writer
+** at a time, but multiple readers can simultaneously exist with
+** that writer. This is a huge increase in concurrency.
+**
+** To summarize the rational for using a client/server approach: prior
+** to SQLite version 3.3.0 it probably was not worth the trouble. But
+** with SQLite version 3.3.0 and beyond you can get significant performance
+** and concurrency improvements and memory usage reductions by going
+** client/server.
+**
+** Note: The extra features of version 3.3.0 described by points (2)
+** through (4) above are only available if you compile without the
+** option -DSQLITE_OMIT_SHARED_CACHE.
+**
+** Here is how the client/server approach works: The database server
+** thread is started on this procedure:
+**
+** void *sqlite3_server(void *NotUsed);
+**
+** The sqlite_server procedure runs as long as the g.serverHalt variable
+** is false. A mutex is used to make sure no more than one server runs
+** at a time. The server waits for messages to arrive on a message
+** queue and processes the messages in order.
+**
+** Two convenience routines are provided for starting and stopping the
+** server thread:
+**
+** void sqlite3_server_start(void);
+** void sqlite3_server_stop(void);
+**
+** Both of the convenience routines return immediately. Neither will
+** ever give an error. If a server is already started or already halted,
+** then the routines are effectively no-ops.
+**
+** Clients use the following interfaces:
+**
+** sqlite3_client_open
+** sqlite3_client_prepare
+** sqlite3_client_step
+** sqlite3_client_reset
+** sqlite3_client_finalize
+** sqlite3_client_close
+**
+** These interfaces work exactly like the standard core SQLite interfaces
+** having the same names without the "_client_" infix. Many other SQLite
+** interfaces can be used directly without having to send messages to the
+** server as long as SQLITE_ENABLE_MEMORY_MANAGEMENT is not defined.
+** The following interfaces fall into this second category:
+**
+** sqlite3_bind_*
+** sqlite3_changes
+** sqlite3_clear_bindings
+** sqlite3_column_*
+** sqlite3_complete
+** sqlite3_create_collation
+** sqlite3_create_function
+** sqlite3_data_count
+** sqlite3_db_handle
+** sqlite3_errcode
+** sqlite3_errmsg
+** sqlite3_last_insert_rowid
+** sqlite3_total_changes
+** sqlite3_transfer_bindings
+**
+** A single SQLite connection (an sqlite3* object) or an SQLite statement
+** (an sqlite3_stmt* object) should only be passed to a single interface
+** function at a time. The connections and statements can be passed from
+** any thread to any of the functions listed in the second group above as
+** long as the same connection is not in use by two threads at once and
+** as long as SQLITE_ENABLE_MEMORY_MANAGEMENT is not defined. Additional
+** information about the SQLITE_ENABLE_MEMORY_MANAGEMENT constraint is
+** below.
+**
+** The busy handler for all database connections should remain turned
+** off. That means that any lock contention will cause the associated
+** sqlite3_client_step() call to return immediately with an SQLITE_BUSY
+** error code. If a busy handler is enabled and lock contention occurs,
+** then the entire server thread will block. This will cause not only
+** the requesting client to block but every other database client as
+** well. It is possible to enhance the code below so that lock
+** contention will cause the message to be placed back on the top of
+** the queue to be tried again later. But such enhanced processing is
+** not included here, in order to keep the example simple.
+**
+** This example code assumes the use of pthreads. Pthreads
+** implementations are available for windows. (See, for example
+** http://sourceware.org/pthreads-win32/announcement.html.) Or, you
+** can translate the locking and thread synchronization code to use
+** windows primitives easily enough. The details are left as an
+** exercise to the reader.
+**
+**** Restrictions Associated With SQLITE_ENABLE_MEMORY_MANAGEMENT ****
+**
+** If you compile with SQLITE_ENABLE_MEMORY_MANAGEMENT defined, then
+** SQLite includes code that tracks how much memory is being used by
+** each thread. These memory counts can become confused if memory
+** is allocated by one thread and then freed by another. For that
+** reason, when SQLITE_ENABLE_MEMORY_MANAGEMENT is used, all operations
+** that might allocate or free memory should be performanced in the same
+** thread that originally created the database connection. In that case,
+** many of the operations that are listed above as safe to be performed
+** in separate threads would need to be sent over to the server to be
+** done there. If SQLITE_ENABLE_MEMORY_MANAGEMENT is defined, then
+** the following functions can be used safely from different threads
+** without messing up the allocation counts:
+**
+** sqlite3_bind_parameter_name
+** sqlite3_bind_parameter_index
+** sqlite3_changes
+** sqlite3_column_blob
+** sqlite3_column_count
+** sqlite3_complete
+** sqlite3_data_count
+** sqlite3_db_handle
+** sqlite3_errcode
+** sqlite3_errmsg
+** sqlite3_last_insert_rowid
+** sqlite3_total_changes
+**
+** The remaining functions are not thread-safe when memory management
+** is enabled. So one would have to define some new interface routines
+** along the following lines:
+**
+** sqlite3_client_bind_*
+** sqlite3_client_clear_bindings
+** sqlite3_client_column_*
+** sqlite3_client_create_collation
+** sqlite3_client_create_function
+** sqlite3_client_transfer_bindings
+**
+** The example code in this file is intended for use with memory
+** management turned off. So the implementation of these additional
+** client interfaces is left as an exercise to the reader.
+**
+** It may seem surprising to the reader that the list of safe functions
+** above does not include things like sqlite3_bind_int() or
+** sqlite3_column_int(). But those routines might, in fact, allocate
+** or deallocate memory. In the case of sqlite3_bind_int(), if the
+** parameter was previously bound to a string that string might need
+** to be deallocated before the new integer value is inserted. In
+** the case of sqlite3_column_int(), the value of the column might be
+** a UTF-16 string which will need to be converted to UTF-8 then into
+** an integer.
