Question

I’m attracted to the neatness that a single file database provides. What driver/connector library is out there to connect and use SQLite with Java.

I’ve discovered a wrapper library, http://www.ch-werner.de/javasqlite, but are there other more prominent projects available?

Answer 1

The wiki lists some more wrappers:

• Java wrapper (around a SWIG interface): http://tk-software.home.comcast.net/
• A good tutorial to use JDBC driver for SQLite. (it works at least !) http://www.ci.uchicago.edu/wiki/bin/view/VDS/VDSDevelopment/UsingSQLite
• Cross-platform JDBC driver which uses embedded native SQLite libraries on Windows, Linux, OS X, and falls back to pure Java implementation on other OSes: https://github.com/xerial/sqlite-jdbc (formerly zentus)
• Another Java – SWIG wrapper. It only works on Win32. http://rodolfo_3.tripod.com/index.html
• sqlite-java-shell: 100% pure Java port of the sqlite3 commandline shell built with NestedVM. (This is not a JDBC driver).
• SQLite JDBC Driver for Mysaifu JVM: SQLite JDBC Driver for Mysaifu JVM and SQLite JNI Library for Windows (x86) and Linux (i386/PowerPC).
