Hello List! I see unexpected behavior using sqlite3's .read command.
The basic problem is illustrated by the following test file: C:\>type test2.sql -- two errors, sqlite3 exits select count(*) from no_table_a; select count(*) from no_table_b; C:\> Here's the result of running sqlite3 and .read-ing the test file: C:\>sqlite3.exe SQLite version 3.7.12 2012-05-14 01:41:23 Enter ".help" for instructions Enter SQL statements terminated with a ";" sqlite> .read test2.sql Error: near line 2: no such table: no_table_a Error: near line 3: no such table: no_table_b C:\> Notice that sqlite3 has exited rather than returning to the "sqlite>" prompt. As far as I can tell this only happens when the file processed by .read contains precisely two errors. I am running SQLite version 3.7.12 2012-05-14 01:41:23 on 64-bit windows 7. My copy of sqlite3.exe came from sqlite-shell-win32-x86-3071200.zip that I downloaded on 5/18/12. Best regards. K. Frank P.S. Here are some more test files that illustrate the issue: -- one error, sqlite3 doesn't exit select count(*) from no_table_a; -- three errors, sqlite3 doesn't exit select count(*) from no_table_a; select count(*) from no_table_b; select count(*) from no_table_c; -- four errors, sqlite3 doesn't exit select count(*) from no_table_a; select count(*) from no_table_b; select count(*) from no_table_c; select count(*) from no_table_d; -- two errors, sqlite3 exits -- note, it seems to be two errors, not just two errors in a row select count(*) from sqlite_master; select count(*) from no_table_a; create table t1 (c1 int, c2 int); select count(*) from sqlite_master; select count(*) from no_table_b; -- two errors, sqlite3 exits -- note, sqlite3 only exits after processing the whole file select count(*) from no_table_a; select count(*) from no_table_b; select count(*) from sqlite_master; _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
