AFAIKT you currently have two supported operation modes:

a) full table scan
b) access via exact ID

To implement a) you should make p_info->estimatedCost be the number of rows in 
your table (I suggest leaving p_info->idxNum as 0).

To implement b) you need to check for a constraint with
        - iColumn == index of your ID column
        - op == SQLITE_INDEX_CONSTRAINT_EQ
        - usable != 0
In that case you need to set p_info->estimatedCost to 1 (you will be retrieving 
only this row), argvIndex to 1, omit to 1 and p_info->idxNum to something 
different (I suggest -1).

You can begin thinking about range scans and index scans later.

Betreff: Re: [sqlite] Error xBestIndex returned an invalid plan
Hi,

Thx for this constructive message ;)

I don't have a lot of experience with the this part of Sqlite which is very 
powerful !

In the xbestIndex function i'm using only this line  :

p_info->idxNum=p_info->aConstraint[0].iColumn;

Because in my xfilter function I needed to know the index of the first column.  
( do you know a better way to do that ? )


and

p_info->idxStr=p_vt->acNameTab;


This part was in case I needed to know the name of my table ... But I don't 
really need it, because I'm using sqlite3_vtab *p_svt to store the extra data 
that I need.


That part :
for(i=0;i<p_info->nConstraint;i++){
if(p_info->aConstraint[i].usable){
p_info->aConstraintUsage[i].argvIndex=j++;
}
}

is to give the order of index . Because the role of this function is to give 
the order of index right ?


In my xFilter function I'm detecting if the column index giving by idxNum is 
the ID of my table. If it is, I'm positioning the cursor at the correct 
position. IF the index of the column is different of ID, I'm positioning the 
cursor at the beginning of my table.

YES, it's not perfect, but most of the time it works ^^ .

you said :

But how are you telling your vt_filter function which fields the passed values 
belong to?


for the moment I'm only using the first column. most of the time it's the ID.


 I don't see how the column number of the first constraint - usable or not- is 
going to be sufficient information. Neither is there a check for the type of 
operation requested taken into account.


Yes I will have to improve it .


Since your filter/next functions are probably going to return arbitrary 
records, the fact that you are not setting any "omit" flags allows SQLite to 
recheck the conditions and return something vaguely resembling the correct 
result set. Just with a lot of work filtering out superfluous records and 
missing any records that should have been returned by filter/next (but were 
not).

Yes I have to improve that too ^^
I don't know why I should use omit ? When do you need it ? Sorry ... I'm a 
beginner ..


Also, you are writing the field aOrderBy, which is documented to be an input 
field.

thx, I've deleted it !


Micka,
