How to execute .load

I am writing some code and want to load the shared library Voodoo. If tried this: rc = sqlite3_exec(DB, "Voodoo", NULL, 0, &ErrMessage); Well, that didn't do the job. Who has a idea to achieve this?

You mean: rc = sqlite3_exec(DB,".load ./Voodoo", NULL, 0, &ErrMessage); Which returns 1 which is not SQLite_OK and that it failed.

I suppose the load_extension() function is what you seek. s/Voodoo/load_extension('myVoodoExtLib')/
You may also need to enable extension loading from SQL.
Or, you could use the sqlite3_load_extension API.
BTW, the word "Extension" appears in the Permutated Index, a lot.

sqlite3_exec() expects SQL, not the CLI shell's metacommands.

Thank you for the information. I overlooked this page.
