[New-bugs-announce] [issue10020] docs for sqlite3 describe functions not available without recompiling

[Doug Hellmann]

New submission from Doug Hellmann <doug.hellmann at gmail.com>:

The documentation for the sqlite3 module describes enable_load_extension() and load_extension() methods of the Connection object, but those functions are only available if the user has compiled from source *after* modifying the setup.py to turn off SQLITE_OMIT_LOAD_EXTENSION.

I'd like to see the functions enabled by default (by changing setup.py) but at the very least the documentation should be updated.
