RE: [sqlite] stupid man's manual to sqlite?
Apress does have an online index they call "superindex" which indexes all Apress books. But I just did some test searches and found it to be equally useless. You can't search a specific book and some searches that obviously should have returned results didn't.

Certainly I admit that a stupid idea can seem to some superior minds, but then the editors of almost all the novels that I have in my library should be stupid. As almost all in this forum has understood, I am not referring to that index type that can occupy a couple of pages at the end, and that is limited to point out the title of each chapter, but to the exhaustive index of words and terms that appear in this type of technical books; manuals and references that by the way, are not those that usually read the people in the subway or in the bus, but like guide in the desktop. As an example, the work "Win32 Programming" from Brent E. Rector and Joseph M. Newcomer, Addison-Wesley. A "brick" with 1522 pages, those that the index occupies 187 pages of words to three columns per page. The one that can let You pass three years of continuous trips without getting bored.

In other circumstances the advice can be different. Go ahead that, in my case, I have never acquired a book the one that cannot say that I have learned something, or that it didn't contain something valuable that had not found in any other one. I also want to pick up your's offer to add some personal suggestion in this respect (IMHO): * Eliminate the part devoted to the SQL generalities. In my opinion, the buyer of a book whose title is "The Definitive Guide to SQLite", doesn't want an introduction to the SQL; for that there already exist good manuals, even in the Web. In the best case, a chapter dedicated the SQL "peculiarities" of SQLite. * I'm not against cut and paste the SQL reference or the C-API from the on-line manual (it is really a convenience for the reader), but include an example, that can be synthetic and not commented, in each epigraph. This gives true utility. * Say goodbye to the index subcontractor, and as an idea: Why not a mini-CD, or a downloadable file with the index? (editors: thought in that, but please, not patent it, the idea is mine :-)) * More and more and more... code examples Finally, if you wants a gift for the hearing, I will tell You that indeed, I find some parts stupendous. For example, the epigraph "The thing called NULL", or the explanation of the supported data types (Storage Classes; Manifest Typing, and Type Affinity). All the chapter 5 "Design and concepts"; chapter 6, "The Core C API"; chapter 7, "Extension C API", and, of course, the chapter 9 "SQLite internals". These last chapters should be more cared and enlarged, because it is the core of the book. Greetings. A.J.Millán ZATOR Systems.

RE: [sqlite] stupid man's manual to sqlite?
I originally wasn't going to buy the book because according to the TOC it look like it was generally about SQL and the C API and not too much that would be helpful for us being knowledgeable in SQL in general and not using the C API. We did buy it 'cause we're basically betting our new product on SQLite and figured even the 20 pages the TOC says are devoted to SQLite internals are helpful it'd be worthwhile. We've been pleasantly surprised and everything I've read so far has been very helpful. The entire book does focus on SQLite and talks consistently about internals and how things work and optimization specific to SQLite. Even the database section which talks about SQL was helpful as was the C API reference even though we're not using the C API. I do have to agree about the index though--the three times I tried to look something up in the index I couldn't find what I was looking for. I wouldn't base a buying decision on the index though.

Re: [sqlite] stupid man's manual to sqlite?
So i will try it.
But what to do before the book will be here?
rc = sqlite3_exec(db, argv[2], callback, 0, );
if( rc!=SQLITE_OK ){
fprintf(stderr, "SQL error: %s\n", zErrMsg);
sqlite3_free(zErrMsg);
}
What does the code if argument is 'select * from tbl1'?
I see, that the results are printed on the screen, but how to fill variables
from the found values for example.
Is there some well arranged manual on the internet?
Thank you

Re: [sqlite] stupid man's manual to sqlite?
Oh, wikipedia says " It also serves as an example for writing applications
that use the SQLite library."
Of course, why do i not get it myself?

Re: [sqlite] stupid man's manual to sqlite?
Hi Jakub,
Check this link
http://sqlite.org/quickstart.html
There is a sample program. compile it and run executable in this form
$./a.out test.db 'create table tbl1(one varchar(10), two smallint)'
$./a.out test.db 'insert into tbl1 values('hello!',10)'
$./a.out test.db 'select * from tbl1'
Thanks,
Pavan.

I need to start with sqlite (interfaced via C language) very quickly,
unfortunately.
I have not any experiences with any SQL, only some books.
I am searching for some "stupid man's manual to sqlite".
I can not found any basic's in documentation section of sqlite.org
For example: I do understand this:
$ sqlite3 ex1
SQLite version 3.3.10
Enter ".help" for instructions
sqlite> create table tbl1(one varchar(10), two smallint);
sqlite> insert into tbl1 values('hello!',10);
sqlite> insert into tbl1 values('goodbye', 20);
sqlite> select * from tbl1;
hello!|10
goodbye|20

but not this:
rc = sqlite3_exec(db, argv[2], callback, 0, );
What format of the command line argument should i write?
Thank you for any advice.
