<a href="intro.html"><h2>Session Module C Interface</h2></a><h2>Generate A Changeset From A Session Object</h2><blockquote><pre>int sqlite3session_changeset(
 | 
						|
  sqlite3_session *pSession,      /* Session object */
 | 
						|
  int *pnChangeset,               /* OUT: Size of buffer at *ppChangeset */
 | 
						|
  void **ppChangeset              /* OUT: Buffer containing changeset */
 | 
						|
);
 | 
						|
</pre></blockquote><p>
 | 
						|
Obtain a changeset containing changes to the tables attached to the 
 | 
						|
session object passed as the first argument. If successful, 
 | 
						|
set *ppChangeset to point to a buffer containing the changeset 
 | 
						|
and *pnChangeset to the size of the changeset in bytes before returning
 | 
						|
SQLITE_OK. If an error occurs, set both *ppChangeset and *pnChangeset to
 | 
						|
zero and return an SQLite error code.</p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p>A changeset consists of zero or more INSERT, UPDATE and/or DELETE changes,
 | 
						|
each representing a change to a single row of an attached table. An INSERT
 | 
						|
change contains the values of each field of a new database row. A DELETE
 | 
						|
contains the original values of each field of a deleted database row. An
 | 
						|
UPDATE change contains the original values of each field of an updated
 | 
						|
database row along with the updated values for each updated non-primary-key
 | 
						|
column. It is not possible for an UPDATE change to represent a change that
 | 
						|
modifies the values of primary key columns. If such a change is made, it
 | 
						|
is represented in a changeset as a DELETE followed by an INSERT.</p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p>Changes are not recorded for rows that have NULL values stored in one or 
 | 
						|
more of their PRIMARY KEY columns. If such a row is inserted or deleted,
 | 
						|
no corresponding change is present in the changesets returned by this
 | 
						|
function. If an existing row with one or more NULL values stored in
 | 
						|
PRIMARY KEY columns is updated so that all PRIMARY KEY columns are non-NULL,
 | 
						|
only an INSERT is appears in the changeset. Similarly, if an existing row
 | 
						|
with non-NULL PRIMARY KEY values is updated so that one or more of its
 | 
						|
PRIMARY KEY columns are set to NULL, the resulting changeset contains a
 | 
						|
DELETE change only.</p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p>The contents of a changeset may be traversed using an iterator created
 | 
						|
using the <a href="../session/sqlite3changeset_start.html">sqlite3changeset_start()</a> API. A changeset may be applied to
 | 
						|
a database with a compatible schema using the <a href="../session/sqlite3changeset_apply.html">sqlite3changeset_apply()</a>
 | 
						|
API.</p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p>Within a changeset generated by this function, all changes related to a
 | 
						|
single table are grouped together. In other words, when iterating through
 | 
						|
a changeset or when applying a changeset to a database, all changes related
 | 
						|
to a single table are processed before moving on to the next table. Tables
 | 
						|
are sorted in the same order in which they were attached (or auto-attached)
 | 
						|
to the sqlite3_session object. The order in which the changes related to
 | 
						|
a single table are stored is undefined.</p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p>Following a successful call to this function, it is the responsibility of
 | 
						|
the caller to eventually free the buffer that *ppChangeset points to using
 | 
						|
<a href="../c3ref/free.html">sqlite3_free()</a>.</p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p><h3>Changeset Generation</h3></p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p>Once a table has been attached to a session object, the session object
 | 
						|
records the primary key values of all new rows inserted into the table.
 | 
						|
It also records the original primary key and other column values of any
 | 
						|
deleted or updated rows. For each unique primary key value, data is only
 | 
						|
recorded once - the first time a row with said primary key is inserted,
 | 
						|
updated or deleted in the lifetime of the session.</p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p>There is one exception to the previous paragraph: when a row is inserted,
 | 
						|
updated or deleted, if one or more of its primary key columns contain a
 | 
						|
NULL value, no record of the change is made.</p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p>The session object therefore accumulates two types of records - those
 | 
						|
that consist of primary key values only (created when the user inserts
 | 
						|
a new record) and those that consist of the primary key values and the
 | 
						|
original values of other table columns (created when the users deletes
 | 
						|
or updates a record).</p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p>When this function is called, the requested changeset is created using
 | 
						|
both the accumulated records and the current contents of the database
 | 
						|
file. Specifically:</p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p><ul>
 | 
						|
  <li> For each record generated by an insert, the database is queried
 | 
						|
       for a row with a matching primary key. If one is found, an INSERT
 | 
						|
       change is added to the changeset. If no such row is found, no change 
 | 
						|
       is added to the changeset.</p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p>  <li> For each record generated by an update or delete, the database is 
 | 
						|
       queried for a row with a matching primary key. If such a row is
 | 
						|
       found and one or more of the non-primary key fields have been
 | 
						|
       modified from their original values, an UPDATE change is added to 
 | 
						|
       the changeset. Or, if no such row is found in the table, a DELETE 
 | 
						|
       change is added to the changeset. If there is a row with a matching
 | 
						|
       primary key in the database, but all fields contain their original
 | 
						|
       values, no change is added to the changeset.
 | 
						|
</ul></p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p>This means, amongst other things, that if a row is inserted and then later
 | 
						|
deleted while a session object is active, neither the insert nor the delete
 | 
						|
will be present in the changeset. Or if a row is deleted and then later a 
 | 
						|
row with the same primary key values inserted while a session object is
 | 
						|
active, the resulting changeset will contain an UPDATE change instead of
 | 
						|
a DELETE and an INSERT.</p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p>When a session object is disabled (see the <a href="../session/sqlite3session_enable.html">sqlite3session_enable()</a> API),
 | 
						|
it does not accumulate records when rows are inserted, updated or deleted.
 | 
						|
This may appear to have some counter-intuitive effects if a single row
 | 
						|
is written to more than once during a session. For example, if a row
 | 
						|
is inserted while a session object is enabled, then later deleted while 
 | 
						|
the same session object is disabled, no INSERT record will appear in the
 | 
						|
changeset, even though the delete took place while the session was disabled.
 | 
						|
Or, if one field of a row is updated while a session is disabled, and 
 | 
						|
another field of the same row is updated while the session is enabled, the
 | 
						|
resulting changeset will contain an UPDATE change that updates both fields.
