Or would sqlite3_close return an error if there's an open transaction? <http://www.sqlite.org/c3ref/close.html> "Applications must finalize all prepared statements and close all BLOB handles associated with the sqlite3 object prior to attempting to close the object. If sqlite3_close() is called on a database connection that still has outstanding prepared statements or BLOB handles, then it returns SQLITE_BUSY." on the other hand ... "If sqlite3_close() is invoked while a transaction is open, the transaction is automatically rolled back." It is not an error to close the file while you're in the middle of a transaction. It just means you didn't commit the transaction.
