Implement application-defined SQL functions #106

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
Currently, System.Data.SQLite allows defining custom functions which allows the 
REGEXP() operator to be used: see http://www.sqlite.org/lang_expr.html#regexp

Currently, there is no support for custom functions so I plan to modify 
func_c.cs for now: once that support is added, it can be moved somewhere else.

I will be posting a series of patches on this issue.

This patch corrects the implementation of sqlite3_{get|set}_auxdata to use an 
object (which will actually store the compiled Regex instance). This is then 
used during the execution of REGEXP() to perform the matching.

Thank you for the patch.  I've wanted to add the application-defined SQL 
functions for a while.  Can you also supply a test routine that can be compiled 
into a function (regex or not) so we can test the entire functionality

I won't be able to work on this till next week (deadline at office). I think 
initially we should implement the sqlite3_create_function APIs, and later on 
think about using the approach used by System.Data.SQLite (it reflected through 
all assemblies and tried to find a class derived from SQLiteFunction) -- using 
reflection in a library doesn't feel correct to me (what happens if the 
assembly is not loaded when the library is loaded?).

I agree that implementing the sqlite3_create_function API makes sense.  Also I 
thought about your original issue, and decided that there is no reason why C# 
regex should not be builtin rather than attached, since C#SQLite can only be 
used with C#.  

(See issue # 107)
