<p>Non-streaming functions that accept changesets (or patchsets) as input
 | 
						|
require that the entire changeset be stored in a single buffer in memory. 
 | 
						|
Similarly, those that return a changeset or patchset do so by returning 
 | 
						|
a pointer to a single large buffer allocated using sqlite3_malloc(). 
 | 
						|
Normally this is convenient. However, if an application running in a 
 | 
						|
low-memory environment is required to handle very large changesets, the
 | 
						|
large contiguous memory allocations required can become onerous.</p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p>In order to avoid this problem, instead of a single large buffer, input
 | 
						|
is passed to a streaming API functions by way of a callback function that
 | 
						|
the sessions module invokes to incrementally request input data as it is
 | 
						|
required. In all cases, a pair of API function parameters such as</p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p> <pre>
 | 
						|
       int nChangeset,
 | 
						|
       void *pChangeset,
 | 
						|
 </pre></p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p>Is replaced by:</p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p> <pre>
 | 
						|
       int (*xInput)(void *pIn, void *pData, int *pnData),
 | 
						|
       void *pIn,
 | 
						|
 </pre></p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p>Each time the xInput callback is invoked by the sessions module, the first
 | 
						|
argument passed is a copy of the supplied pIn context pointer. The second 
 | 
						|
argument, pData, points to a buffer (*pnData) bytes in size. Assuming no 
 | 
						|
error occurs the xInput method should copy up to (*pnData) bytes of data 
 | 
						|
into the buffer and set (*pnData) to the actual number of bytes copied 
 | 
						|
before returning SQLITE_OK. If the input is completely exhausted, (*pnData) 
 | 
						|
should be set to zero to indicate this. Or, if an error occurs, an SQLite 
 | 
						|
error code should be returned. In all cases, if an xInput callback returns
 | 
						|
an error, all processing is abandoned and the streaming API function
 | 
						|
returns a copy of the error code to the caller.</p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p>In the case of sqlite3changeset_start_strm(), the xInput callback may be
 | 
						|
invoked by the sessions module at any point during the lifetime of the
 | 
						|
iterator. If such an xInput callback returns an error, the iterator enters
 | 
						|
an error state, whereby all subsequent calls to iterator functions 
 | 
						|
immediately fail with the same error code as returned by xInput.</p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p>Similarly, streaming API functions that return changesets (or patchsets)
 | 
						|
return them in chunks by way of a callback function instead of via a
 | 
						|
pointer to a single large buffer. In this case, a pair of parameters such
 | 
						|
as:</p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p> <pre>
 | 
						|
       int *pnChangeset,
 | 
						|
       void **ppChangeset,
 | 
						|
 </pre></p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p>Is replaced by:</p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p> <pre>
 | 
						|
       int (*xOutput)(void *pOut, const void *pData, int nData),
 | 
						|
       void *pOut
 | 
						|
 </pre></p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p>The xOutput callback is invoked zero or more times to return data to
 | 
						|
the application. The first parameter passed to each call is a copy of the
 | 
						|
pOut pointer supplied by the application. The second parameter, pData,
 | 
						|
points to a buffer nData bytes in size containing the chunk of output
 | 
						|
data being returned. If the xOutput callback successfully processes the
 | 
						|
supplied data, it should return SQLITE_OK to indicate success. Otherwise,
 | 
						|
it should return some other SQLite error code. In this case processing
 | 
						|
is immediately abandoned and the streaming API function returns a copy
 | 
						|
of the xOutput error code to the application.</p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p>The sessions module never invokes an xOutput callback with the third 
 | 
						|
parameter set to a value less than or equal to zero. Other than this,
 | 
						|
no guarantees are made as to the size of the chunks of data returned.
