Try:
UPDATE table SET aColumn = someNewValue, numTouched = numTouched + 1
WHERE <predicates>;

| Subject: - [sqlite] Incrementing the value of a column
|
>--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Hello,
This is the schema: ROWID INTEGER, myText TEXT, numTouched INTEGER
Each time I update a record I'd like to increment its 'numTouched'
column. I could read the record, retrieve the numTouched value,
increment it by 1, then update the record with the new text and
touched values.
Is there a way to do that without SELECT(ing) first the record?
Thanks,
-- Tito
