[转帖]HOWTO rename column name in Sqlite3 database
Say you have a table and need to rename "colb" to "col_b":
First you rename the old table:
ALTER TABLE orig_table_name RENAME TO tmp_table_name;
Then create the new table, based on the old table but with the updated column name:
CREATE TABLE orig_table_name (
col_a INT
, col_b INT
);
Then copy the contents across from the original table.
INSERT INTO orig_table_name(col_a, col_b)
SELECT col_a, colb
FROM tmp_table_name;
Lastly, drop the old table.
DROP TABLE tmp_table_name;
Wrapping all this in a BEGIN TRANSACTION;
and COMMIT;
is also probably a good idea.
