#define SQLITE_VERSION "3.5.2" #define SQLITE_VERSION_NUMBER 3005002
The version of the SQLite library is contained in the sqlite3.h header file in a #define named SQLITE_VERSION. The SQLITE_VERSION macro resolves to a string constant.
The format of the version string is "X.Y.Z", where X is the major version number, Y is the minor version number and Z is the release number. The X.Y.Z might be followed by "alpha" or "beta". For example "3.1.1beta".
The X value is always 3 in SQLite. The X value only changes when backwards compatibility is broken and we intend to never break backwards compatibility. The Y value only changes when there are major feature enhancements that are forwards compatible but not backwards compatible. The Z value is incremented with each release but resets back to 0 when Y is incremented.
The SQLITE_VERSION_NUMBER is an integer with the value (X*1000000 + Y*1000 + Z). For example, for version "3.1.1beta", SQLITE_VERSION_NUMBER is set to 3001001. To detect if they are using version 3.1.1 or greater at compile time, programs may use the test (SQLITE_VERSION_NUMBER>=3001001).
