<a href="intro.html"><h2>SQLite C Interface</h2></a>
 |

<h2>Dynamically Typed Value Object</h2>
 | 
						|
</div>
 | 
						|
<blockquote><pre>
 | 
						|
typedef struct sqlite3_value sqlite3_value;
 | 
						|
</pre></blockquote>
 | 
						|
<p>
 | 
						|
SQLite uses the sqlite3_value object to represent all values
 | 
						|
that can be stored in a database table. SQLite uses dynamic typing
 | 
						|
for the values it stores.  Values stored in sqlite3_value objects
 | 
						|
can be integers, floating point values, strings, BLOBs, or NULL.</p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p>An sqlite3_value object may be either "protected" or "unprotected".
 | 
						|
Some interfaces require a protected sqlite3_value.  Other interfaces
 | 
						|
will accept either a protected or an unprotected sqlite3_value.
 | 
						|
Every interface that accepts sqlite3_value arguments specifies
 | 
						|
whether or not it requires a protected sqlite3_value.  The
 | 
						|
<a href="../c3ref/value_dup.html">sqlite3_value_dup()</a> interface can be used to construct a new
 | 
						|
protected sqlite3_value from an unprotected sqlite3_value.</p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p>The terms "protected" and "unprotected" refer to whether or not
 | 
						|
a mutex is held.  An internal mutex is held for a protected
 | 
						|
sqlite3_value object but no mutex is held for an unprotected
 | 
						|
sqlite3_value object.  If SQLite is compiled to be single-threaded
 | 
						|
(with <a href="../compile.html#threadsafe">SQLITE_THREADSAFE=0</a> and with <a href="../c3ref/threadsafe.html">sqlite3_threadsafe()</a> returning 0)
 | 
						|
or if SQLite is run in one of reduced mutex modes
 | 
						|
<a href="../c3ref/c_config_covering_index_scan.html#sqliteconfigsinglethread">SQLITE_CONFIG_SINGLETHREAD</a> or <a href="../c3ref/c_config_covering_index_scan.html#sqliteconfigmultithread">SQLITE_CONFIG_MULTITHREAD</a>
 | 
						|
then there is no distinction between protected and unprotected
 | 
						|
sqlite3_value objects and they can be used interchangeably.  However,
 | 
						|
for maximum code portability it is recommended that applications
 | 
						|
still make the distinction between protected and unprotected
 | 
						|
sqlite3_value objects even when not strictly required.</p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p>The sqlite3_value objects that are passed as parameters into the
 | 
						|
implementation of <a href="../appfunc.html">application-defined SQL functions</a> are protected.
 | 
						|
The sqlite3_value object returned by
 | 
						|
<a href="../c3ref/column_blob.html">sqlite3_column_value()</a> is unprotected.
 | 
						|
Unprotected sqlite3_value objects may only be used as arguments
 | 
						|
to <a href="../c3ref/result_blob.html">sqlite3_result_value()</a>, <a href="../c3ref/bind_blob.html">sqlite3_bind_value()</a>, and
 | 
						|
<a href="../c3ref/value_dup.html">sqlite3_value_dup()</a>.
 | 
						|
The <a href="../c3ref/value_blob.html">sqlite3_value_type()</a> family of
 | 
						|
interfaces require protected sqlite3_value objects.
