Re: [sqlite] sqlite3_column_name() contains quotes for views
This problem was fixed here http://www.sqlite.org/src/info/5526e0aa3c.
It will appear in the next version of SQLite.

Re: [sqlite] sqlite3_column_name() contains quotes for views
In the example, I just realized something that makes matters worse.
sqlite> SELECT "id" AS "id", "name" AS "name" FROM "names";
id|name
1|Linus
2|Bill
3|Steve
4|Richard
5|Ninjas
Despite using a view, using AS seems to remove the quotes.

Subject: [sqlite] sqlite3_column_name() contains quotes for views
I believe I ran into a bug with SQLite, and would like to ensure the problem is
not on my end.
I created a simple table along with a view of it:
SQLite version 3.7.14.1 2012-10-04 19:37:12
Enter ".help" for instructions
Enter SQL statements terminated with a ";"
sqlite> .dump
PRAGMA foreign_keys=OFF;
BEGIN TRANSACTION;
CREATE TABLE "namesReal" (
"id" INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT,
"name" TEXT NOT NULL UNIQUE ON CONFLICT IGNORE
);
INSERT INTO "namesReal" VALUES(1,'Linus');
INSERT INTO "namesReal" VALUES(2,'Bill');
INSERT INTO "namesReal" VALUES(3,'Steve');
INSERT INTO "namesReal" VALUES(4,'Richard');
INSERT INTO "namesReal" VALUES(5,'Ninjas');
DELETE FROM sqlite_sequence;
INSERT INTO "sqlite_sequence" VALUES('namesReal',10);
CREATE VIEW "names" AS SELECT * FROM "namesReal";
COMMIT;
-
At this point selecting from names or namesReal should generate the same data:
sqlite> .header on
sqlite> SELECT "id", "name" FROM "namesReal";
id|name
1|Linus
2|Bill
3|Steve
4|Richard
5|Ninjas
-
The data above is good, the column names, as well as the row values. But look
what happens when selecting from the view:
sqlite> SELECT "id", "name" FROM "names";
"id"|"name"
1|Linus
2|Bill
3|Steve
4|Richard
5|Ninjas
-
The quotes are being includes in the column names unlike the prior case.
However when selecting via wildcard, this happens:
sqlite> SELECT * FROM "names";
id|name
1|Linus
2|Bill
3|Steve
4|Richard
5|Ninjas
-
It appears from these examples, that SQLite mistakenly? is including the
decorations around column names as used by the query for views. Unless I'm
mistaken, column names are supposed to be quoted in SQL in order to prevent
conflict with reserved words.
When trying to query this database with the API, sqlite3_column_name() includes
the quotes around the column name in the second select statement, but not in
the first or third. So it seems the issue is with that function, and not some
quirk of the command line client.
Is this a bug? Or am I doing something wrong?

[sqlite] sqlite3_column_name() contains quotes for views
I believe I ran into a bug with SQLite, and would like to ensure the problem is
not on my end.
I created a simple table along with a view of it:

BEGIN TRANSACTION;
CREATE TABLE "namesReal" (
"id" INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT,
"name" TEXT NOT NULL UNIQUE ON CONFLICT IGNORE
);
INSERT INTO "namesReal" VALUES(1,'Linus');
INSERT INTO "namesReal" VALUES(2,'Bill');
INSERT INTO "namesReal" VALUES(3,'Steve');
INSERT INTO "namesReal" VALUES(4,'Richard');
INSERT INTO "namesReal" VALUES(5,'Ninjas');
DELETE FROM sqlite_sequence;
INSERT INTO "sqlite_sequence" VALUES('namesReal',10);
CREATE VIEW "names" AS SELECT * FROM "namesReal";
COMMIT;
-
At this point selecting from names or namesReal should generate the same data:
sqlite> .header on
sqlite> SELECT "id", "name" FROM "namesReal";
id|name
