i think i understand why it doesnt work for select *.. because sqlite_step executes one row at time.. so after i prepare SELECT * , i need to use sqlite_step as many times as table i`m selecting from has rows (in this case 3 times).. so i made another function that looks like this:
bool create2 (char * command) { sqlite3_stmt * statement2; if ( sqlite3_prepare (db, command, -1, &statement2, 0) != SQLITE_OK ) { int err = sqlite3_prepare (db, command, -1, &statement2, 0); const char * pErr = sqlite3_errmsg (db); printf ("\nError %d occured! \n %s", err, pErr ); return 1; } int i; for (i=0; i<=3; i++) { int smth= sqlite3_step (statement2); printf ("\n command= %s result code = %d \n",command, smth); } sqlite3_reset (statement2); sqlite3_finalize (statement2); return 0; } and finaly i get SQLITE_DONE but it still doesnt show me table i have selected... do i need to use prepare function for each command? if so, isnt then function select_statement better to use? -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/execute-or-prepare%2Bstep%2Bfinalize-tp26299247p26299743.html Sent from the SQLite mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
