I understand why you'd think that, but check the docs: https://www.sqlite.org/capi3ref.html#sqlite3_open > A database connection handle is usually returned in *ppDb, __even if an error occurs__. > The only exception is that if SQLite is unable to allocate memory to hold the sqlite3 object, > a NULL will be written into *ppDb instead of a pointer to the sqlite3 object. So we're not looking at an "either an error or sqlite3* is returned" - you can get both. The other thing to takeaway: > Whether or not an error occurs when it is opened, resources associated with the > database connection handle should be released by passing it to sqlite3_close() > when it is no longer required. -Rowan _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@mailinglists.sqlite.org http://mailinglists.sqlite.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
