Error Codes And Messages

int sqlite3_errcode(sqlite3 *db);
const char *sqlite3_errmsg(sqlite3*);
const void *sqlite3_errmsg16(sqlite3*);

The sqlite3_errcode() interface returns the numeric result code or extended result code for the most recent failed sqlite3_* API call associated with sqlite3 handle 'db'. If a prior API call failed but the most recent API call succeeded, the return value from sqlite3_errcode() is undefined.

The sqlite3_errmsg() and sqlite3_errmsg16() return English-language text that describes the error, as either UTF8 or UTF16 respectively. Memory to hold the error message string is managed internally. The application does not need to worry with freeing the result. However, the error string might be overwritten or deallocated by subsequent calls to other SQLite interface functions.
