Re: Anyone here using SQLite ?

["Dean, Robert" <rdean@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I like the concept of storing app config in a database.  It separates the config from the code, and allows deployment of the same binary to unit test, system test, qa, etc., with a configuration appropriate for the environment.

Thanks for the feedback. 

My real interest is to potentially use SQLite with .Net as a lightweight alternative to deploying SQL Server or some other server database when an application does not have a ton of settings or database needs.

MS Access databases or my own XML files can also be used, but I would rather stay with something a little lighter.

In an ASP.Net web application, the Web.Config is a nice place to get the app started, but I like the idea of storing all the relevant settings in a database. 

Any downsides other than not running on i :-)

It was.  Now Derby or Java DB depending upon implementation.  It's built into WAS CE.
