I'm trying to figure out how sqlite3_last_insert_rowid() interacts with transactions.
I've read the thread at http://www.mail-archive.com/sqlite-users@sqlite.org/msg13393.html However, the concern raised in the last message of that thread is exactly my concern, and was never addressed in the context of that thread (or elsewhere, as far as I can see). What happens when I do a bunch of inserts in a transaction (possibly DEFERRED), and another process completes an insert before I commit? Can any of my ROWID's be affected/changed? The documentation seems slightly ambiguous as to whether the last_insert_rowid will be from the last committed insert, or last insert sent to the server. I haven't been able to find a positive statement to the effect of "yes, last_insert_rowid invariably returns the ROWID from the last insert statment, even if its transaction has not yet been comitted." So, if someone could enlighten me as to the defined behavior of sqlite3_last_insert_rowid with regards to transactions, I would be most grateful.
