Hi guys,

 

   1st I'd like to say I'm pretty new to SQLite, about 1 week. I'm trying to
handle correctly the DB opening and here's some question on this.

 

#1 I'm validating the db.sqlite file exist. if it doesn't, it creates it,
right ? so right after being created, is the sqlite_master table created
right away and a valid table for me to fetch the list of tablename (which
should be empty) ?

 

#2 if my db.sqlite file exist, I'm doing a sqlite_open3 on it. I was hoping
the error code returned to actually help me determine is the file is a valid
DB but it don't seems to read at all from the file.  In fact, that's only
when I 1st try to SELECT something from the file that I'm getting error_code
26 

#define SQLITE_NOTADB      26   /* File opened that is not a database file
*/

As stated in  http://www.sqlite.org/capi3.html , the error code from 24-26
present but that might just be new stuff since 3.0 I'm using 3.6  I'm giving
an invalid DB file on purpose to simulate a corrupted DB. 

Is there a (Quick) way to check whether or not the opened file is a database
way other than using sql_exec  ?
