In some cases SQLite creates new tables for internal use. The names of these internal schema objects always begin with
sqlite_
and the objects are not to be touched by applications.Example case:
If column declaration uses
AUTOINCREMENT
keyword, a tablesqlite_sequence
is created to track the unique ids. This table can not be dropped.Currently,
sqlite3.Drop()
resolves tables to be dropped by querying tablesqlite_master
for all tables in the database. However, this query also returns aforementionedsqlite_sequence
table leading to errors when trying toDROP
it later.This branch adds:
sqlite_
from the query results.Fixes #1138
