[Qgis-user] Accessing Spatialite 3.0.1 in QGIS 1.8 using Python Console

[richard burcher]

Hi Folks,

I'm trying to access spatialite from the python console with aim to building
a plugin. I'm fairly new to qgis dev & understanding the api. 

>From checking it seems there are two versions of spatialite?: using
pyspatialite module the version stated is 2.3.1 but I need access to 3.0.1
(referenced in about dialog).

System:
windows 7 x64
qgis 1.8 standalone

Steps so far:
Importing sqlite3, the load_extension(True) does not return any messages but
I can not find a system dll ie "libspatialite-.dll". The only reference to a
spatialite dll is spatialite.dll in the qgis/bin folder. I attempted to use
that to load the extensions but message recieved is "operational error: not
authorized".

How to I load the 3.0.1 spatial extensions? What have I missed?

Cheers,

Richard
