get value autoincrement into db sqlite

[Bob Sneidar]

Being that sqLite is typically a single user system this works fine. How about in a multiuser database? Can you trust that no one is going to do an insert just before you check? Does transactional processing accommodate this? That is, if I have started a transaction, will I get the next increment value without committing first? What happens if I rollback the transaction? Will the value I rolled back be reused next insert? Or maybe a transaction locks the database and prevents inserts/updates... I have always wondered about how transactions affect things like this.
