Hmm. Well, I can see that any non-deterministic function would be a problem here. How about applying the logic from DEFAULT values and CHECK constraints ? Do they allow deterministic functions ? I just tried to find documentation to answer that but failed. >> ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN cannot be used to add GENERATED ALWAYS … STORED >> columns > > The doc should explain why this restriction exists, given that SQLite does > otherwise allow ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN. I believe that the developers don't want any ALTER TABLE command to have to rewrite all the data in the table. I can see the reasoning. _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@mailinglists.sqlite.org http://mailinglists.sqlite.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
