# This script makes modifications to the vdbe.c source file which reduce
# the amount of stack space required by the sqlite3VdbeExec() routine.
#
# The modifications performed by this script are optional.  The vdbe.c
# source file will compile correctly with and without the modifications
# performed by this script.  And all routines within vdbe.c will compute
# the same result.  The modifications made by this script merely help
# the C compiler to generate code for sqlite3VdbeExec() that uses less
# stack space.
#
# Script usage:
#
#          mv vdbe.c vdbe.c.template
#          tclsh vdbe-compress.tcl $CFLAGS <vdbe.c.template >vdbe.c
#
# Modifications made:
#
# All modifications are within the sqlite3VdbeExec() function.  The
# modifications seek to reduce the amount of stack space allocated by
# this routine by moving local variable declarations out of individual
# opcode implementations and into a single large union.  The union contains
# a separate structure for each opcode and that structure contains the
# local variables used by that opcode.  In this way, the total amount
# of stack space required by sqlite3VdbeExec() is reduced from the
# sum of all local variables to the maximum of the local variable space
# required for any single opcode.
#
# In order to be recognized by this script, local variables must appear
# on the first line after the open curly-brace that begins a new opcode
# implementation.  Local variables must not have initializers, though they
# may be commented.
#
# The union definition is inserted in place of a special marker comment
# in the preamble to the sqlite3VdbeExec() implementation.
