Getting memory of SQLite database

I am using an in-memory SQLite database to store part of a configuration for use in copy/paste. I need to be able to grab the memory to stream it to the clipboard and read it back in. Does anyone know how to grab the memory?

SQLite has no mechanism to grab the actual memory of an in-memory database.

You could use the backup API to copy the database to a temporary file, but then it might have been a better idea to create a file-based database in the first place.

Alternatively, it would be possible to write your own VFS that stores the data in RAM instead of in a file. However, this might be more effort than you want to spend.
