What was the first version of Python that included SQLite?

• What was the first version of Python that included SQLite?
• What version of SQLite was included?

I thought Python 2.5 was the first 开发者_Python百科version to include SQLite, but I was hoping someone could confirm that and the version of SQLite that was first included.

From the docs:

11.13. sqlite3 — DB-API 2.0 interface for SQLite databases

New in version 2.5.

As others have noted, a snapshot of the pysqlite2 was merged into the Python standard library and released as the sqlite3 module in Python 2.5. There has been subsequent independent development on pysqlite2 which has been merged back into sqlite3 at various points for subsequent Python releases and sqlite3 has received its own bug fixes.

There is no one correct answer to the question of which version of SQLite was included because the Python source code distribution does not include the source for SQLite. The build process, for Unix-style builds, depends on an externally provided copy of the library. It is up to each distributor of Python to decide how to manage that. For instance, the current python.org installer 32-bit-only variants for Mac OS X statically includes a version of the SQLite library while the 64-bit variant for 10.6 dynamically links to the system-supplied version of the library. So, to answer your second question, you would need to check each distribution of Python 2.5 and determine what version(s) of SQLite each was statically or dynamically linked with.

It was first included in python version 2.5.

The version of sqlite was 3.0.8, based off of the pysqlite2.1.3 library.
