I've seen a small patch along the lines of this used. I'm sure it could be
improved, but it seems like it often would give a bit more context.
Token msg;
msg.z = pParse->zTail;
msg.n = pParse->sLastToken.z - pParse->zTail + pParse->sLastToken.n;
if(msg.n > 36)
{
msg.z = msg.z + msg.n - 36;
msg.n = 36;
}
assert( msg.z[0] );
sqlite3ErrorMsg(pParse, "near \"%T<--here\": syntax error", &msg);
UNUSED_PARAMETER(yymajor); /* Silence some compiler warnings */
assert( TOKEN.z[0] ); /* The tokenizer always gives us a token */
/*sqlite3ErrorMsg(pParse, "near \"%T\": syntax error", &TOKEN);*/

Subject: [sqlite] error messages from SQLite
When executing a sql query I often find I have made a typo or been a bit dull
and I'll get an error message back along the lines of
Error: near "text": syntax error
Is there a way of expanding on this, for instance adding more of the following
text or a character offset. The last time this happened I had a create table...
command with about 30 text columns and identifying which "text" string the
error referred to took a little while.
Thanks
