本内容定义了SQLite的C语言接口。
These pages define the C-language interface to SQLite.

这并不是一个简易指南，这些内容是非常精确的，不易读的。如果想要简易介绍，参见SQLite 3分钟入门和SQLite C/C++接口简介。
This is not a tutorial. These pages are designed to be precise, not easy to read. For a tutorial introduction see SQLite In 3 Minutes Or Less and/or the Introduction To The SQLite C/C++ Interface.

这一版的C语言接口参考被分割为多个小页面以方便阅读。如果喜欢一个页面的人，也可以在一个大 HTML 文件中找到相同的内容。
This version of the C-language interface reference is broken down into small pages for easy viewing. The same content is also available as a single large HTML file for those who prefer that format.

这些页面的内容都是从源码文件的注释中提取出来的。
The content on these pages is extracted from comments in the source code.

接口被拆分到三个分类当中：
The interface is broken down into three categories:

1. 对象列表。这是SQLite库中使用的所有抽象对象和数据类型的列表。一共大概有数十个对象，但是最重要的三个对象是：数据库连接对象sqlite3，预编译语句对象sqlite3_stmt和64位整数类型sqlite3_int64。
   List Of Objects. This is a list of all abstract objects and datatypes used by the SQLite library. There are couple dozen objects in total, but the three most important objects are: A database connection object sqlite3, prepared statement object sqlite3_stmt, and the 64-bit integer type sqlite3_int64.

2. 常量列表。这里是SQLite中使用的数值常量列表，这些都定义在sqlite3.h头文件中。这些常量中有各种接口的数值返回值（例如：SQLITE_OK），也有传入函数来控制行为的标志（例如：SQLITE_OPEN_READONLY）。
   List Of Constants. This is a list of numeric constants used by SQLite and represented by #defines in the sqlite3.h header file. These constants are things such as numeric return parameters from various interfaces (ex: SQLITE_OK or flags passed into functions to control behavior (ex: SQLITE_OPEN_READONLY).

3. 函数列表。这里是所有操作对象、使用或返回常量的函数或方法。这里有很多函数，但是大部分应用程序只使用很少的一部分。
   List Of Functions. This is a list of all functions and methods operating on the objects and using and/or returning constants. There are many functions, but most applications only use a handful.
