It seems that my words are still ambiguous, let me make it further clear. there are many processes in the system (ie, linux ), they use the sqlite databases, I add many rules to allow/forbidden their access to the databases, such as: "A" (process name) can see all records except rowid 1,2 "B" .....except rowid 1,3 "C" ......except rowid 4,5 and so on. The rule could be updated at any time. I can't control the action of "A", "B", "C", they have their own normal SQL , so the WHERE clause can't be added except modifying the source code of sqlite3_exec() and change the zSql parameter. I can only control the databases and the libsqlite.so. Is everything clear?
