Hi, all,

is there a syntactical construct which will allow me to use a pragma in a
subselect? e.g. i'm trying to do...

sqlite> pragma table_info(vfile);
cid|name|type|notnull|dflt_value|pk
0|id|INTEGER|0||1
1|vid|INTEGER|0||0
...

sqlite> select name from (pragma table_info(vfile));
Error: near "(": syntax error
sqlite> select name from pragma table_info(vfile);
Error: near "(": syntax error
sqlite> create view v as pragma table_info(vfile);
Error: near "pragma": syntax error
sqlite> create view v as select (pragma table_info(vfile));
Error: near "table_info": syntax error
sqlite> create view v as select pragma table_info(vfile);
Error: near "(": syntax error

Is this possible?
