13 ** This file defines various limits of what SQLite can process.
17 ** The maximum length of a TEXT or BLOB in bytes. This also
18 ** limits the size of a row in a table or index.
20 ** The hard limit is the ability of a 32-bit signed integer
21 ** to count the size: 2^31-1 or 2147483647.
23 #ifndef SQLITE_MAX_LENGTH
24 # define SQLITE_MAX_LENGTH 1000000000
25 #endif
28 ** This is the maximum number of
30 ** * Columns in a table
31 ** * Columns in an index
32 ** * Columns in a view
33 ** * Terms in the SET clause of an UPDATE statement
34 ** * Terms in the result set of a SELECT statement
35 ** * Terms in the GROUP BY or ORDER BY clauses of a SELECT statement.
36 ** * Terms in the VALUES clause of an INSERT statement
38 ** The hard upper limit here is 32676. Most database people will
39 ** tell you that in a well-normalized database, you usually should
40 ** not have more than a dozen or so columns in any table. And if
41 ** that is the case, there is no point in having more than a few
42 ** dozen values in any of the other situations described above.
44 #ifndef SQLITE_MAX_COLUMN
45 # define SQLITE_MAX_COLUMN 2000
46 #endif
49 ** The maximum length of a single SQL statement in bytes.
51 ** It used to be the case that setting this value to zero would
52 ** turn the limit off. That is no longer true. It is not possible
53 ** to turn this limit off.
55 #ifndef SQLITE_MAX_SQL_LENGTH
56 # define SQLITE_MAX_SQL_LENGTH 1000000000
57 #endif
60 ** The maximum depth of an expression tree. This is limited to
61 ** some extent by SQLITE_MAX_SQL_LENGTH. But sometime you might
62 ** want to place more severe limits on the complexity of an
63 ** expression. A value of 0 means that there is no limit.
65 #ifndef SQLITE_MAX_EXPR_DEPTH
66 # define SQLITE_MAX_EXPR_DEPTH 1000
67 #endif
70 ** The maximum number of terms in a compound SELECT statement.
71 ** The code generator for compound SELECT statements does one
72 ** level of recursion for each term. A stack overflow can result
73 ** if the number of terms is too large. In practice, most SQL
74 ** never has more than 3 or 4 terms. Use a value of 0 to disable
75 ** any limit on the number of terms in a compount SELECT.
77 #ifndef SQLITE_MAX_COMPOUND_SELECT
78 # define SQLITE_MAX_COMPOUND_SELECT 500
79 #endif
82 ** The maximum number of opcodes in a VDBE program.
83 ** Not currently enforced.
85 #ifndef SQLITE_MAX_VDBE_OP
86 # define SQLITE_MAX_VDBE_OP 250000000
87 #endif
90 ** The maximum number of arguments to an SQL function.
92 #ifndef SQLITE_MAX_FUNCTION_ARG
93 # define SQLITE_MAX_FUNCTION_ARG 127
94 #endif
97 ** The suggested maximum number of in-memory pages to use for
98 ** the main database table and for temporary tables.
100 ** IMPLEMENTATION-OF: R-30185-15359 The default suggested cache size is -2000,
101 ** which means the cache size is limited to 2048000 bytes of memory.
102 ** IMPLEMENTATION-OF: R-48205-43578 The default suggested cache size can be
103 ** altered using the SQLITE_DEFAULT_CACHE_SIZE compile-time options.
105 #ifndef SQLITE_DEFAULT_CACHE_SIZE
106 # define SQLITE_DEFAULT_CACHE_SIZE -2000
107 #endif
110 ** The default number of frames to accumulate in the log file before
111 ** checkpointing the database in WAL mode.
113 #ifndef SQLITE_DEFAULT_WAL_AUTOCHECKPOINT
114 # define SQLITE_DEFAULT_WAL_AUTOCHECKPOINT 1000
115 #endif
118 ** The maximum number of attached databases. This must be between 0
119 ** and 125. The upper bound of 125 is because the attached databases are
120 ** counted using a signed 8-bit integer which has a maximum value of 127
121 ** and we have to allow 2 extra counts for the "main" and "temp" databases.
123 #ifndef SQLITE_MAX_ATTACHED
124 # define SQLITE_MAX_ATTACHED 10
125 #endif
129 ** The maximum value of a ?nnn wildcard that the parser will accept.
130 ** If the value exceeds 32767 then extra space is required for the Expr
131 ** structure. But otherwise, we believe that the number can be as large
132 ** as a signed 32-bit integer can hold.
134 #ifndef SQLITE_MAX_VARIABLE_NUMBER
135 # define SQLITE_MAX_VARIABLE_NUMBER 32766
136 #endif
138 /* Maximum page size. The upper bound on this value is 65536. This a limit
139 ** imposed by the use of 16-bit offsets within each page.
141 ** Earlier versions of SQLite allowed the user to change this value at
142 ** compile time. This is no longer permitted, on the grounds that it creates
143 ** a library that is technically incompatible with an SQLite library
144 ** compiled with a different limit. If a process operating on a database
145 ** with a page-size of 65536 bytes crashes, then an instance of SQLite
146 ** compiled with the default page-size limit will not be able to rollback
147 ** the aborted transaction. This could lead to database corruption.

167 ** Ordinarily, if no value is explicitly provided, SQLite creates databases
168 ** with page size SQLITE_DEFAULT_PAGE_SIZE. However, based on certain
169 ** device characteristics (sector-size and atomic write() support),
170 ** SQLite may choose a larger value. This constant is the maximum value
171 ** SQLite will choose on its own.
