<blockquote><pre>
 | 
						|
void *sqlite3_get_auxdata(sqlite3_context*, int N);

void sqlite3_set_auxdata(sqlite3_context*, int N, void*, void (*)(void*));

						|
</pre></blockquote>
 | 
						|
<p>
 | 
						|
These functions may be used by (non-aggregate) SQL functions to
 | 
						|
associate metadata with argument values. If the same value is passed to
 | 
						|
multiple invocations of the same SQL function during query execution, under
 | 
						|
some circumstances the associated metadata may be preserved.  An example
 | 
						|
of where this might be useful is in a regular-expression matching
 | 
						|
function. The compiled version of the regular expression can be stored as
 | 
						|
metadata associated with the pattern string.
 | 
						|
Then as long as the pattern string remains the same,
 | 
						|
the compiled regular expression can be reused on multiple
 | 
						|
invocations of the same function.</p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p>The sqlite3_get_auxdata(C,N) interface returns a pointer to the metadata
 | 
						|
associated by the sqlite3_set_auxdata(C,N,P,X) function with the Nth argument
 | 
						|
value to the application-defined function.  N is zero for the left-most
 | 
						|
function argument.  If there is no metadata
 | 
						|
associated with the function argument, the sqlite3_get_auxdata(C,N) interface
 | 
						|
returns a NULL pointer.</p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p>The sqlite3_set_auxdata(C,N,P,X) interface saves P as metadata for the N-th
 | 
						|
argument of the application-defined function.  Subsequent
 | 
						|
calls to sqlite3_get_auxdata(C,N) return P from the most recent
 | 
						|
sqlite3_set_auxdata(C,N,P,X) call if the metadata is still valid or
 | 
						|
NULL if the metadata has been discarded.
 | 
						|
After each call to sqlite3_set_auxdata(C,N,P,X) where X is not NULL,
 | 
						|
SQLite will invoke the destructor function X with parameter P exactly
 | 
						|
once, when the metadata is discarded.
 | 
						|
SQLite is free to discard the metadata at any time, including: <ul>
 | 
						|
<li> when the corresponding function parameter changes, or
 | 
						|
<li> when <a href="../c3ref/reset.html">sqlite3_reset()</a> or <a href="../c3ref/finalize.html">sqlite3_finalize()</a> is called for the
 | 
						|
SQL statement, or
 | 
						|
<li> when sqlite3_set_auxdata() is invoked again on the same
 | 
						|
parameter, or
 | 
						|
<li> during the original sqlite3_set_auxdata() call when a memory
 | 
						|
allocation error occurs. </ul></p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p>Note the last bullet in particular.  The destructor X in
 | 
						|
sqlite3_set_auxdata(C,N,P,X) might be called immediately, before the
 | 
						|
sqlite3_set_auxdata() interface even returns.  Hence sqlite3_set_auxdata()
 | 
						|
should be called near the end of the function implementation and the
 | 
						|
function implementation should not make any use of P after
 | 
						|
sqlite3_set_auxdata() has been called.</p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p>In practice, metadata is preserved between function calls for
 | 
						|
function parameters that are compile-time constants, including literal
 | 
						|
values and <a href="../lang_expr.html#varparam">parameters</a> and expressions composed from the same.</p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p>The value of the N parameter to these interfaces should be non-negative.
 | 
						|
Future enhancements may make use of negative N values to define new
 | 
						|
kinds of function caching behavior.</p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p>These routines must be called from the same thread in which
 | 
						|
the SQL function is running.
