NAME
sqlite3_wal_checkpoint —
Checkpoint a
database
SYNOPSIS
int
sqlite3_wal_checkpoint(
sqlite3 *db,
const char *zDb);
DESCRIPTION
The sqlite3_wal_checkpoint(D,X) is equivalent to
sqlite3_wal_checkpoint_v2(D,X,SQLITE_CHECKPOINT_PASSIVE,0,0).
In brief, sqlite3_wal_checkpoint(D,X) causes the content in the write-ahead log
for database X on database connection D to be transferred into the database
file and for the write-ahead log to be reset. See the checkpointing
documentation for addition information.
This interface used to be the only way to cause a checkpoint to occur. But then
the newer and more powerful sqlite3_wal_checkpoint_v2() interface was added.
This interface is retained for backwards compatibility and as a convenience
for applications that need to manually start a callback but which do not need
the full power (and corresponding complication) of
sqlite3_wal_checkpoint_v2().
