This is the internal code that sqlite uses to convert the 
declaration type to the REAL, INT, TEXT, BLOB types.

Happy hacking...

Subject: [sqlite] A way to get SQLite type from decl type?

Hi all,

Is there a way to obtain the SQLite type (e.g. SQLITE_INTEGER) given
the declared type from the schema?



What I'm really trying to do:

  I'm working on RSQLite, an interface for the R language to SQLite.
  I want to determine the type of the columns in an arbitrary result
  set.  

  Everything is fine, except when the row used to do the checking has
  a NULL.  In this case, I'd like to attempt to determine the type for
  the column if it isn't NULL.  This may not make sense to you, but
  the return value I'm building is column oriented and R has special
  null-like values that are type-specific.

If sqlite3_column_type returns SQLITE_NULL, I can use
sqlite3_column_decltype to obtain the declared type.  But then I still
need to map that to SQLITE_INTEGER, SQLITE_REAL, or SQLITE_TEXT.
Clearly the engine knows how to do this, but I couldn't find the API
function (might just be blind ;-)

Thanks much,

+ seth
