/*
** Incremental Integrity-Check Extension
** -------------------------------------
**
** This module contains code to check whether or not an SQLite database
** is well-formed or corrupt. This is the same task as performed by SQLite's
** built-in "PRAGMA integrity_check" command. This module differs from
** "PRAGMA integrity_check" in that:
**
**   +  It is less thorough - this module does not detect certain types
**      of corruption that are detected by the PRAGMA command. However,
**      it does detect all kinds of corruption that are likely to cause
**      errors in SQLite applications.
**
**   +  It is slower. Sometimes up to three times slower.
**
**   +  It allows integrity-check operations to be split into multiple
**      transactions, so that the database does not need to be read-locked
**      for the duration of the integrity-check.
**
** One way to use the API to run integrity-check on the "main" database
** of handle db is:
**
**   int rc = SQLITE_OK;
**   sqlite3_intck *p = 0;
**
**   sqlite3_intck_open(db, "main", &p);
**   while( SQLITE_OK==sqlite3_intck_step(p) ){
**     const char *zMsg = sqlite3_intck_message(p);
**     if( zMsg ) printf("corruption: %s\n", zMsg);
**   }
**   rc = sqlite3_intck_error(p, &zErr);
**   if( rc!=SQLITE_OK ){
**     printf("error occured (rc=%d), (errmsg=%s)\n", rc, zErr);
**   }
**   sqlite3_intck_close(p);
**
** Usually, the sqlite3_intck object opens a read transaction within the
** first call to sqlite3_intck_step() and holds it open until the 
** integrity-check is complete. However, if sqlite3_intck_unlock() is
** called, the read transaction is ended and a new read transaction opened
** by the subsequent call to sqlite3_intck_step().

** SQLITE_OK), sqlite3_intck_message() returns a non-NULL value if 
** corruption was detected in the db.
