Requirements consist of excerpts from the documentation. A requirement is usually a one-sentence excerpt but might be a sentence fragment, multiple sentences, a table, or a GIF image of a bubble syntax diagram.
Requirements are written in conversational English and without the modal auxiliary verb "shall". This grows out of the fact that requirements are taken from the documentation. The intended audience for the documentation is application programmers. "Shall" language is appropriate when the audience consist of contract specialists, QA auditors, and lawyers, but it interferes with comprehension when the audience is application programmers. Hence, in order to best serve the intended audience, the "shall" language is omitted.
Requirements are sufficiently detailed and precise to permit a 100% compatible clean-room reimplementation of SQLite.
The word "requirement" in common English usage implies an ordering: that the requirement comes before the implementation. But there is no such ordering with SQLite requirements. What are called "requirements" in SQLite are better described as "testable statements of truth about the behavior of the system".
Every testable statement of truth about SQLite in the documentation becomes a requirement.
Requirement numbers are the MD5 hash of the requirement itself.
Requirements are inherently immutable, since any change to the requirement results in a completely different requirement number.
For text requirements, the text is normalized prior to computing the MD5 hash:
For GIF syntax diagram requirements, the MD5 hash is computed over the entire content of the GIF image file.
The MD5 hash is expressed in human-readable form as follows:
R-N-N-N-N-N-N-N-NWhere each N is a 5-digit number between 00000 and 65536 that represents 16 bits of the 128-bit MD5 hash.
Requirements may be referenced by any unique prefix of their complete requirement number.
Text requirements are automatically extracted from the documentation by scripts that run as part of the documentation build process.
After requirements have been extracted from the documentation, the requirement markers "^", "^(", and ")^" are removed from the documentation text. This is done automatically by the documentation build scripts.
To avoid collisions with these requirements delimiters, "^" characters that are part of the text of a requirement or that are otherwise found in the documentation, should be coded as "^".
<img alt="syntax diagram NAME" src="FILE">Where NAME is the name of the syntax diagram and FILE is the name of the GIF file containing the syntax diagram.
Syntax diagram requirements are automatically extracted from the documentation by scripts that run as part of the documentation build process.
The GIF file is the requirement, not the HTML markup that references the GIF file nor the diagram name.
The documentation that contains the requirement text is generated by scripts that use as input files from both files in the documentation fossil repository and comments in the source code.

Some systems (for example, Windows 95) do not support the operation implemented by sqlite3_mutex_try(). On those systems, sqlite3_mutex_try() will always return SQLITE_BUSY. The SQLite core only ever uses sqlite3_mutex_try() as an optimization so this is acceptable behavior. (source: c3ref/mutex_alloc.html, checked-by: th3/mkth3.tcl, matrix: context, detail)

(source: syntax/compound-operator.html, matrix: context, detail)
If, however, all columns that were to be fetched from the table are already available in the index itself, SQLite will use the values contained in the index and will never look up the original table row. (source: optoverview.html, matrix: context, detail)
No storage class conversions occur before the sort. (source: datatype3.html, checked-by: th3/req1/datatype3_04.test, matrix: context, detail)

The vfs query parameter causes the database connection to be opened using the VFS called NAME. (source: uri.html, matrix: context, detail)
Example: Let the index be CREATE INDEX ex2 ON tab2(b,c) WHERE c IS NOT NULL; Then any query that uses operators =, <, >, <=, >=, <>, IN, LIKE, or GLOB on column "c" would be usable with the partial index because those comparison operators are only true if "c" is not NULL.

If the database uses a 65536-byte page size and the reserved space is zero (the usual value for reserved space) then the cell content offset of an empty page wants to be 65536. However, that integer is too large to be stored in a 2-byte unsigned integer, so a value of 0 is used in its place. (source: fileformat2.html, checked-by: src/btree.c, matrix: context, detail)
Some virtual table implementations might impose additional restrictions. (source: lang_createvtab.html, matrix: context, detail)

A subsequent call to sqlite3_result_error() or sqlite3_result_error16() resets the error code to SQLITE_ERROR. (source: c3ref/result_blob.html, checked-by: th3/req1/result01.test, matrix: context, detail)
If the table to which the trigger is attached is in the TEMP database, then the unqualified name of the table being updated is resolved in the same way as it is for a top-level statement (by searching first the TEMP database, then the main database, then any other databases in the order they were attached). (source: lang_update.html, checked-by: tcl/e_update.test, matrix: context, detail)
Hence, when an application changes the statistics tables directly, SQLite will not immediately notice the changes. (source: lang_analyze.html, matrix: context, detail)
When a "table-name" is specified, the only foreign key constraints checked are those created by REFERENCES clauses in the CREATE TABLE statement for table-name. (source: pragma.html, matrix: context, detail)

If used within a SELECT that uses the "query by rowid" or "linear scan" strategies, then the snippet and offsets both return an empty string, and the matchinfo function returns a blob value zero bytes in size. (source: fts3.html, checked-by: tcl/fts3snippet.test, matrix: context, detail)
Inserts into WITHOUT ROWID tables are not recorded. (source: c3ref/last_insert_rowid.html, matrix: context, detail)
As with the LIKE operator, the sqlite3_strlike(P,X,E) function is case insensitive - equivalent upper and lower case ASCII characters match one another. (source: c3ref/strlike.html, matrix: context, detail)
Duplicate rows are removed from the results of INTERSECT and EXCEPT operators before the result set is returned. (source: lang_select.html, checked-by: tcl/e_select.test, matrix: context, detail)
However xMutexAlloc() may use SQLite memory allocation for a fast or recursive mutex. (source: c3ref/mutex_methods.html, matrix: context, detail)
The first column is usually 0 but will be 1 if a RESTART or FULL or TRUNCATE checkpoint was blocked from completing, for example because another thread or process was actively using the database. (source: pragma.html, matrix: context, detail)
Warning: misuse of this pragma can easily result in a corrupt database file. (source: pragma.html, matrix: context, detail)
If no negative ROWID values are inserted explicitly, then automatically generated ROWID values will always be greater than zero. (source: autoinc.html, checked-by: src/vdbe.c, th3/cov1/vdbe23.test, matrix: context, detail)
The fourth parameter to sqlite3_open_v2() is the name of the sqlite3_vfs object that defines the operating system interface that the new database connection should use. (source: c3ref/open.html, matrix: context, detail)
In those routines that have a fourth argument, its value is the number of bytes in the parameter. To be clear: the value is the number of bytes in the value, not the number of characters. (source: c3ref/bind_blob.html, checked-by: th3/req1/bind01.test, matrix: context, detail)
The rank of the column within the table being indexed, or -1 if the index-column is the rowid of the table being indexed. (source: pragma.html, checked-by: tcl/pragma.test, matrix: context, detail)
Only an effective call of sqlite3_initialize() does any initialization. All other calls are harmless no-ops. (source: c3ref/initialize.html, matrix: context, detail)
Another limitation of the histogram data is that it only applies to the left-most column on an index. (source: optoverview.html, matrix: context, detail)
The fifth byte through the last usable byte are used to hold overflow content. (source: fileformat2.html, matrix: context, detail)
The third integer is the number number of rows in the index that have the same value for the first two columns. (source: fileformat2.html, matrix: context, detail)
The SQLITE_DBCONFIG_ENABLE_QPSG option activates or deactivates the query planner stability guarantee (QPSG). When the QPSG is active, a single SQL query statement will always use the same algorithm regardless of values of bound parameters. (source: c3ref/c_dbconfig_defensive.html, matrix: context, detail)
The parameter P is passed through as the only parameter to the callback function X. (source: c3ref/progress_handler.html, checked-by: th3/req1/progress01.test, matrix: context, detail)
Otherwise, the affinity is NUMERIC. (source: datatype3.html, checked-by: th3/req1/datatype3_01.test, matrix: context, detail)
Autocheckpointing is enabled by default with an interval of 1000 or SQLITE_DEFAULT_WAL_AUTOCHECKPOINT. (source: pragma.html, matrix: context, detail)
The first (query) form will return the synchronous setting as an integer. (source: pragma.html, matrix: context, detail)
In more recent versions of SQLite, the ROLLBACK will proceed and pending statements will often be aborted, causing them to return an SQLITE_ABORT or SQLITE_ABORT_ROLLBACK error. (source: lang_transaction.html, matrix: context, detail)
Parent and child keys must have the same cardinality. (source: foreignkeys.html, checked-by: tcl/e_fkey.test, th3/req1/foreignkeys11.test, matrix: context, detail)
The dbstat virtual table is available on all database connections when SQLite is built using the SQLITE_ENABLE_DBSTAT_VTAB compile-time option. (source: dbstat.html, matrix: context, detail)
If an error occurs while evaluating the SQL statements passed into sqlite3_exec(), then execution of the current statement stops and subsequent statements are skipped. (source: c3ref/exec.html, checked-by: th3/req1/exec01.test, matrix: context, detail)
PRAGMA schema.secure_delete; PRAGMA schema.secure_delete = boolean|FAST Query or change the secure-delete setting. (source: pragma.html, matrix: context, detail)
Comments do not nest. (source: lang_comment.html, checked-by: th3/req1/comment01.test, matrix: context, detail)
When you change the cache size using the cache_size pragma, the change only endures for the current session. (source: pragma.html, checked-by: th3/req1/pragma09.test, matrix: context, detail)
Any command that changes the database (basically, any SQL command other than SELECT) will automatically start a transaction if one is not already in effect. (source: lang_transaction.html, matrix: context, detail)
If this parameter is -1, then the SQL function or aggregate may take any number of arguments between 0 and the limit set by sqlite3_limit(SQLITE_LIMIT_FUNCTION_ARG). (source: c3ref/create_function.html, checked-by: th3/req1/createfunc02.test, matrix: context, detail)
The default transaction behavior is deferred. (source: lang_transaction.html, matrix: context, detail)
The returned string is valid until the prepared statement is destroyed using sqlite3_finalize() or until the statement is automatically reprepared by the first call to sqlite3_step() for a particular run or until the same information is requested again in a different encoding. (source: c3ref/column_database_name.html, matrix: context, detail)
This option sets the threading mode to Serialized. (source: c3ref/c_config_covering_index_scan.html, checked-by: src/main.c, matrix: context, detail)
The multi-argument max() function searches its arguments from left to right for an argument that defines a collating function and uses that collating function for all string comparisons. (source: lang_corefunc.html, checked-by: th3/req1/func03.test, matrix: context, detail)
(source: syntax/column-name-list.html, matrix: context, detail)
If no error (SQLITE_BUSY or otherwise) is encountered while processing the attached databases, SQLITE_OK is returned. (source: c3ref/wal_checkpoint_v2.html, checked-by: tcl/e_walckpt.test, matrix: context, detail)
The "pk" column in the result set is zero for columns that are not part of the primary key, and is the index of the column in the primary key for columns that are part of the primary key. (source: pragma.html, matrix: context, detail)
If the third parameter to sqlite3_result_error() or sqlite3_result_error16() is non-negative then SQLite takes that many bytes (not characters) from the 2nd parameter as the error message. (source: c3ref/result_blob.html, checked-by: th3/req1/result01.test, matrix: context, detail)
If the keywords PRIMARY KEY are added to a column definition, then the primary key for the table consists of that single column. (source: lang_createtable.html, checked-by: tcl/e_createtable.test, matrix: context, detail)
The WAL journaling mode uses a write-ahead log instead of a rollback journal to implement transactions. (source: pragma.html, checked-by: th3/req1/pragma24.test, matrix: context, detail)
When temp_store is DEFAULT (0), the compile-time C preprocessor macro SQLITE_TEMP_STORE is used to determine where temporary tables and indices are stored. (source: pragma.html, matrix: context, detail)
This can result in a table that contains data that is in violation of the CHECK constraint. (source: lang_altertable.html, checked-by: th3/req1/altertable01.test, matrix: context, detail)
Other integer type names like "INT" or "BIGINT" or "SHORT INTEGER" or "UNSIGNED INTEGER" causes the primary key column to behave as an ordinary table column with integer affinity and a unique index, not as an alias for the rowid.
