I don't think so. INTEGER PRIMARY KEYs have another magic property in that if you insert a NULL into them, they automatically convert that NULL into a valid integer primary key. So the "notnull" column in PRAGMA table_info does not mean "is this column always non-null when read" but rather as "is it an error to insert a NULL into this column". For ordinary columns that are marked NOT NULL, the answer will be "yes" according to both meanings. But for an INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, the answer according to the second meaning is "no". -- D.
