 In the SQL strings input to sqlite3_prepare_v2() and sqlite3_prepare16_v2(),
 one or more literals can be replace by a parameter "?" or ":AAA" or 
 "@AAA" or "\$VVV"
 where AAA is an alphanumeric identifier and VVV is a variable name according
 to the syntax rules of the TCL programming language.
 The values of these parameters (also called "host parameter names")
 can be set using the sqlite3_bind_*() routines.

 The first argument to the sqlite3_bind_*() routines always is a pointer
 to the sqlite3_stmt structure returned from sqlite3_prepare_v2().  The second
 argument is the index of the parameter to be set.  The first parameter has
 an index of 1. When the same named parameter is used more than once, second
 and subsequent
 occurrences have the same index as the first occurrence.  The index for
 named parameters can be looked up using the
 sqlite3_bind_parameter_name() API if desired.

 special value SQLITE_STATIC, then the library assumes that the information
 is in static, unmanaged space and does not need to be freed.  If the
 fifth argument has the value SQLITE_TRANSIENT, then SQLite makes its
 own private copy of the data immediately, before the sqlite3_bind_*()
 routine returns.

 The sqlite3_bind_*() routines must be called after
 sqlite3_prepare_v2() or sqlite3_reset() and before sqlite3_step().
 Bindings are not cleared by the sqlite3_reset() routine.
 Unbound parameters are interpreted as NULL.

 These routines return SQLITE_OK on success or an error code if
 anything goes wrong.  SQLITE_RANGE is returned if the parameter
 index is out of range.  SQLITE_NOMEM is returned if malloc fails.
 SQLITE_MISUSE is returned if these routines are called on a virtual

} {
 These routines return information about the information
 in a single column of the current result row of a query.  In every
 case the first argument is a pointer to the SQL statement that is being
 executed (the sqlite_stmt* that was returned from sqlite3_prepare_v2()) and
 the second argument is the index of the column for which information 
 should be returned.  iCol is zero-indexed.  The left-most column has an
 index of 0.

 If the SQL statement is not currently point to a valid row, or if the
 the column index is out of range, the result is undefined.

} {
 The sqlite3_finalize() function is called to delete a prepared
 SQL statement obtained by a previous call to sqlite3_prepare(),
 sqlite3_prepare_v2(), sqlite3_prepare16(), or sqlite3_prepare16_v2().
 If the statement was executed successfully, or
 not executed at all, then SQLITE_OK is returned. If execution of the
 statement failed then an error code is returned. 

 All prepared statements must finalized before sqlite3_close() is
 called or else the close will fail with a return code of SQLITE_BUSY.

 This routine can be called at any point during the execution of the

 Note to windows users:  The encoding used for the filename argument
 of sqlite3_open() must be UTF-8, not whatever codepage is currently
 defined.  Filenames containing international characters must be converted
 to UTF-8 prior to passing them into sqlite3_open().

 To execute an SQL query, it must first be compiled into a byte-code
 program using one of these routines. 




 The first argument "db" is an SQLite database handle. The second
 argument "zSql" is the statement to be compiled, encoded as either
 UTF-8 or UTF-16.  The sqlite3_prepare() and sqlite3_prepare_v2()
 interfaces uses UTF-8 and sqlite3_prepare16() and sqlite3_prepare16_v2()
 use UTF-16. If the next argument, "nBytes", is less
 than zero, then zSql is read up to the first nul terminator.  If
 "nBytes" is not less than zero, then it is the length of the string zSql
 in bytes (not characters).

 *pzTail is made to point to the first byte past the end of the first
 SQL statement in zSql.  This routine only compiles the first statement
 in zSql, so *pzTail is left pointing to what remains uncompiled.

 *ppStmt is left pointing to a compiled SQL statement that can be
 executed using sqlite3_step().  Or if there is an error, *ppStmt may be
 set to NULL.  If the input text contained no SQL (if the input is and
 empty string or a comment) then *ppStmt is set to NULL.  The calling
 procedure is responsible for deleting this compiled SQL statement
 using sqlite3_finalize() after it has finished with it.

 On success, SQLITE_OK is returned.  Otherwise an error code is returned.

 The sqlite3_prepare_v2() and sqlite3_prepare16_v2() interfaces are
 recommended for all new programs. The other two interfaces are retained
 for backwards compatibility. In the "v2" interfaces, the prepared statement
 that is returned (the sqlite3_stmt object) contains a copy of the original
 SQL. This causes the sqlite3_step() interface to behave a little differently.
 If the database schema changes, instead of returning SQLITE_SCHEMA as it
 always used to do, sqlite3_step() will automatically recompile the SQL
 statement and try to run it again. Only after 5 consecutive failures will
 an SQLITE_SCHEMA failure be reported back. The other change is that
 sqlite3_step() will return one of the detailed result-codes
 like SQLITE_IOERR or SQLITE_FULL or SQLITE_SCHEMA directly. The
 legacy behavior was that sqlite3_step() would only return a generic
 SQLITE_ERROR code and you would have to make a second call to
 sqlite3_reset() in order to find the underlying cause of the problem.
 With the "v2" prepare interfaces, the underlying reason for the error is
 returned directly.

}

api {} {
int sqlite3_reset(sqlite3_stmt *pStmt);
} {
 The sqlite3_reset() function is called to reset a prepared SQL
 statement obtained by a previous call to sqlite3_prepare(),
 sqlite3_prepare_v2(), sqlite3_prepare16() or
 sqlite3_prepare16_v2() back to it's initial state, ready to be re-executed.
 Any SQL statement variables that had values bound to them using
 the sqlite3_bind_*() API retain their values.

} {
 This routine registers a callback with the SQLite library.  The
 callback is invoked by sqlite3_prepare_v2() to authorize various
 operations against the database.  The callback should
 return SQLITE_OK if access is allowed, SQLITE_DENY if the entire
 SQL statement should be aborted with an error and SQLITE_IGNORE
 if the operation should be treated as a no-op.

 Each database connection have at most one authorizer registered
 at a time one time.  Each call

 is the name of the inner-most trigger or view that is responsible for
 the access attempt or NULL if this access attempt is directly from 
 input SQL code.

 The return value of the authorization function should be one of the
 constants SQLITE_OK, SQLITE_DENY, or SQLITE_IGNORE.  A return of
 SQLITE_OK means that the operation is permitted and that 
 sqlite3_prepare_v2() can proceed as normal.
 A return of SQLITE_DENY means that the sqlite3_prepare_v2()
 should fail with an error.  A return of SQLITE_IGNORE causes the 
 sqlite3_prepare_v2() to continue as normal but the requested 
 operation is silently converted into a no-op.  A return of SQLITE_IGNORE
 in response to an SQLITE_READ or SQLITE_FUNCTION causes the column
 being read or the function being invoked to return a NULL.

 The intent of this routine is to allow applications to safely execute
 user-entered SQL.  An appropriate callback can deny the user-entered
 SQL access certain operations (ex: anything that changes the database)
 or to deny access to certain tables or columns within the database.

api {} {
int sqlite3_step(sqlite3_stmt*);
} {
 After an SQL query has been prepared with a call to either
 sqlite3_prepare(), sqlite3_prepare_v2(), sqlite3_prepare16(),
 or sqlite3_prepare16_v2(), then this function must be
 called one or more times to execute the statement.

 The details of the behavior of this sqlite3_step() interface depend
 on whether the statement was prepared using the newer "v2" interface
 sqlite3_prepare_v2() and sqlite3_prepare16_v2() or the older legacy
 interface sqlite3_prepare() and sqlite3_prepare16().  The use of the
 new "v2" interface is recommended for new applications but the legacy
 interface will continue to be supported.

 In the lagacy interface, the return value will be either SQLITE_BUSY, 
 SQLITE_DONE, SQLITE_ROW, SQLITE_ERROR, or SQLITE_MISUSE.  With the "v2"
 interface, any of the other SQLite result-codes might be returned as
 well.

 SQLITE_BUSY means that the database engine attempted to open
 a locked database and there is no busy callback registered.
 Call sqlite3_step() again to retry the open.

 SQLITE_DONE means that the statement has finished executing
 successfully.  sqlite3_step() should not be called again on this virtual

 is called again to retrieve the next row of data.
 
 SQLITE_ERROR means that a run-time error (such as a constraint
 violation) has occurred.  sqlite3_step() should not be called again on
 the VM. More information may be found by calling sqlite3_errmsg().
 A more specific error code (example: SQLITE_INTERRUPT, SQLITE_SCHEMA,
 SQLITE_CORRUPT, and so forth) can be obtained by calling
 sqlite3_reset() on the prepared statement.  In the "v2" interface,
 the more specific error code is returned directly by sqlite3_step().

 SQLITE_MISUSE means that the this routine was called inappropriately.
 Perhaps it was called on a virtual machine that had already been
 finalized or on one that had previously returned SQLITE_ERROR or
 SQLITE_DONE.  Or it could be the case that a database connection
 is being used by a different thread than the one it was created it.

 <b>Goofy Interface Alert:</b>
 In the legacy interface, 
 the sqlite3_step() API always returns a generic error code,
 SQLITE_ERROR, following any error other than SQLITE_BUSY and SQLITE_MISUSE.
 You must call sqlite3_reset() (or sqlite3_finalize()) in order to find
 one of the specific result-codes that better describes the error.
 We admit that this is a goofy design.  The problem has been fixed


 with the "v2" interface.  If you prepare all of your SQL statements


 using either sqlite3_prepare_v2() or sqlite3_prepare16_v2() instead


 of the legacy sqlite3_prepare() and sqlite3_prepare16(), then the 



 more specific result-codes are returned directly by sqlite3_step().






 The use of the "v2" interface is recommended.

 Register a function that is called each time an SQL statement is evaluated.
 The callback function is invoked on the first call to sqlite3_step() after
 calls to sqlite3_prepare_v2() or sqlite3_reset().
 This function can be used (for example) to generate
 a log file of all SQL executed against a database.  This can be
 useful when debugging an application that uses SQLite.

  This routine must not be called when any database connections
  are active in the current thread.  Enabling or disabling shared
  cache while there are active database connections will result
  in memory corruption.

  When the shared cache is enabled, the
  following routines must always be called from the same thread:
  sqlite3_open(), sqlite3_prepare_v2(), sqlite3_step(), sqlite3_reset(),
  sqlite3_finalize(), and sqlite3_close().
  This is due to the fact that the shared cache makes use of
  thread-specific storage so that it will be available for sharing
  with other connections.

  This routine returns SQLITE_OK if shared cache was
  enabled or disabled successfully.  An error code is returned
