NAME
sqlite3_vtab —
Virtual Table Instance
Object
SYNOPSIS
struct sqlite3_vtab;
DESCRIPTION
Every virtual table module implementation uses a subclass of this object to
describe a particular instance of the virtual table. Each subclass will be
tailored to the specific needs of the module implementation. The purpose of
this superclass is to define certain fields that are common to all module
implementations.
Virtual tables methods can set an error message by assigning a string obtained
from sqlite3_mprintf() to zErrMsg. The method should take care that any prior
string is freed by a call to sqlite3_free() prior to assigning a new string to
zErrMsg. After the error message is delivered up to the client application,
the string will be automatically freed by sqlite3_free() and the zErrMsg field
will be zeroed.
