<p>

If this global variable is made to point to a string which is
 | 
						|
the name of a folder (a.k.a. directory), then all database files
 | 
						|
specified with a relative pathname and created or accessed by
 | 
						|
SQLite when using a built-in windows <a href="../c3ref/vfs.html">VFS</a> will be assumed
 | 
						|
to be relative to that directory. If this variable is a NULL
 | 
						|
pointer, then SQLite assumes that all database files specified
 | 
						|
with a relative pathname are relative to the current directory
 | 
						|
for the process.  Only the windows VFS makes use of this global
 | 
						|
variable; it is ignored by the unix VFS.</p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p>Changing the value of this variable while a database connection is
 | 
						|
open can result in a corrupt database.</p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p>It is not safe to read or modify this variable in more than one
 | 
						|
thread at a time.  It is not safe to read or modify this variable
 | 
						|
if a <a href="../c3ref/sqlite3.html">database connection</a> is being used at the same time in a separate
 | 
						|
thread.
 | 
						|
It is intended that this variable be set once
 | 
						|
as part of process initialization and before any SQLite interface
 | 
						|
routines have been called and that this variable remain unchanged
 | 
						|
thereafter.</p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p>The <a href="../pragma.html#pragma_data_store_directory">data_store_directory pragma</a> may modify this variable and cause
 | 
						|
it to point to memory obtained from <a href="../c3ref/free.html">sqlite3_malloc</a>.  Furthermore,
 | 
						|
the <a href="../pragma.html#pragma_data_store_directory">data_store_directory pragma</a> always assumes that any string
 | 
						|
that this variable points to is held in memory obtained from
 | 
						|
<a href="../c3ref/free.html">sqlite3_malloc</a> and the pragma may attempt to free that memory
 | 
						|
using <a href="../c3ref/free.html">sqlite3_free</a>.
 | 
						|
Hence, if this variable is modified directly, either it should be
 | 
						|
made NULL or made to point to memory obtained from <a href="../c3ref/free.html">sqlite3_malloc</a>
 | 
						|
or else the use of the <a href="../pragma.html#pragma_data_store_directory">data_store_directory pragma</a> should be avoided.
