| International Components for Unicode | sqlite_icu | This option causes the International Components for Unicode or "ICU" extension to SQLite to be added to the build |

| JSON SQL Functions | sqlite_json | When this option is defined in the amalgamation, the JSON SQL functions are added to the build automatically |
| Pre Update Hook | sqlite_preupdate_hook | Registers a callback function that is invoked prior to each INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE operation on a database table. |
| Secure Delete | sqlite_secure_delete | This compile-time option changes the default setting of the secure_delete pragma.<br><br>When this option is not used, secure_delete defaults to off. When this option is present, secure_delete defaults to on.<br><br>The secure_delete setting causes deleted content to be overwritten with zeros. There is a small performance penalty since additional I/O must occur.<br><br>On the other hand, secure_delete can prevent fragments of sensitive information from lingering in unused parts of the database file after it has been deleted. See the documentation on the secure_delete pragma for additional information |

Why is it racy if I use a `sql.Open("sqlite3", ":memory:")` database?

Each connection to `":memory:"` opens a brand new in-memory sql database, so if

workaround is to use `"file::memory:?cache=shared"` (or `"file:foobar?mode=memory&cache=shared"`). Every
connection to this string will point to the same in-memory database.
Note that if the last database connection in the pool closes, the in-memory database is deleted. Make sure the [max idle connection limit](https://golang.org/pkg/database/sql/#DB.SetMaxIdleConns) is > 0, and the [connection lifetime](https://golang.org/pkg/database/sql/#DB.SetConnMaxLifetime) is infinite.
