| 23:42 | Bug fix: do not segfault if a SELECT without a FROM clause includes the * wildcard in the result column list. (CVS 609) check-in: d9392949 user: drh tags: trunk | |

| 23:16 | Fix for ticket #62: Do not report an SQLITE_READONLY error until the application actually tries to write data into a readonly file. It is OK to start a transaction on a read-only file, and doing so will get you a read lock. This change allows TEMP tables to be read/write even though the main database is readonly.
