Maybe the problem is simply my understanding of how sqlite3 internally references those. If it, e.g., internally replaces them both with "?1" then i can see how it would work as-is. > i'm curious if there is a way to get all of the > >> indexes of a given named parameter? >> > > When you say "index", you seem to mean "a particular occurrence of a > parameter within the query". Yes, but after reading your reply i can imagine that :param is internally replaced with ?NNN, in which case it becomes clear how bind-by-index(1) can do the right thing in the face of multiple instances of a given name. > For example, for the above SQL snippet > >> i "would like to" be able to get the values (1, 2) in some manner. >> > > What do you mean, get the values?

By "values" (admittedly a poor choice of words) i meant the parameter indexes. :) -- ----- stephan beal http://wanderinghorse.net/home/stephan/ http://gplus.to/sgbeal _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
