Okay, my previous message related to SQL syntax, so I suppose it's
fair to point out that "string" isn't a SQL type. In fact, I should
have used the term 'text' most places where the word 'string'
appeared. But we're missing the point.
What I was trying to get at was, when I create a view based on the
query "SELECT *, 'a' as origin from a.foo", the origin column in the
resulting view has (according to PRAGMA table_info(foo)) a 'NUMERIC'
affinity.
What I'd like is for table_info to report the origin column's
affinity as TEXT.
So, now that I've got my semantics sorted, does anybody have any
suggestions for how to make that happen?
Thanks,
