Bug is as follows:
SQLite version 3.14.0 2016-07-26 15:17:14
Enter ".help" for usage hints.
sqlite> CREATE TABLE reports (a INT, b TEXT);
sqlite> CREATE INDEX index_reports_quotes ON reports ("yearz_doesnt_exist");
sqlite> PRAGMA index_xinfo('index_reports_quotes');
0|-2||0|BINARY|1
1|-1||0|BINARY|0
DRH says that, having failed to find a column called 'yearz_doesnt_exist'
SQLite is interpreting that name as a fixed text string and creating a
calculated index. This one isn’t useful but it’s legal. So far so good. Now
continue.
sqlite> CREATE INDEX index_reports_apostrophes ON reports
...> ('yearz_doesnt_exist');
Error: no such column: yearz_doesnt_exist
Here I am intentionally trying to create the same calculated index. I have
explicitly quoted the string 'yearz_doesnt_exist', which means I am explicitly
supplying an expression. Why doesn’t SQLite understand this ?
If this is a bug, credit for spotting it belongs to Ersin Akinci.
Simon.
