Thank you for your attention ! I'm pointing this here because postgresql do manage this case properly !
And I'm creating a tool to prototype database applications and I'm using sqlite as the primary database, when we are prototyping things can change drastically at any point and if we already have a lot of views/triggers it's a pain in the ass to fix it (postgresql does it fine). Also that we got to this point would be nice if sqlite implemented a basic SQL ANSI data dictioanry,? I mean sqlite already provide most of the info for a basic data dictionary but in a non compliant way "PRAGMAS", although is better than nothing we can not use that info on sql statements like views/joins. Would be nice if sqlite provides virtual ansi views (like postgresql does on top of it's pg_catalog) for : - check_constraints ? - collations - columns - key_column_usage - referential_constraints - sequences - table_constraints - tables - triggered_update_columns - triggers - user_defined_types - views ?
