ok, so REALDatabase is dead. Wonderful. REALSQLDatabase is barely alive, so do I now have to purchase something that *works*?

Here are my issues:

• Despite the documentation, the "_rowid" column does not really exist. That's minor, I should be able to create my own column. Here's hoping. • GetSchemaData and ReplaceSchemaData also do not exist. Did anybody read that documentation, or just do a Find/Replace? How do I create new empty databases without this functionality? Considering the lack of documentation, I'm not sure what SQL I can use to do so. • I have yet to be able to remove/modify columns in a table that's already been saved. This really hurts.

There will probably be more. How does anybody use this?
