SQLite中在定义过句柄之后就可以指向数据库,从而利用iOS应用程序进行打开或关闭等各种操作,这里我们就来看一下iOS App使用SQLite之句柄的定义及数据库的基本操作
句柄
要操纵一个数据库你就得有一个这个数据库的句柄(又碰到这个难以理解的词了，不过确实还没得一个更好的词来替代它)。其实你跟本不需要去在乎这个词叫什么，你只要搞清楚他是一个什么玩意儿。就如同鞋子为什么叫鞋子，仔细想想确实也难以理解，不过 清楚他的功能就OK了，不是吗？
句柄在很多地方我们见到过，最常见的就是文件的句柄，我们要操纵一个文件，我们就要取得一个文件的句柄。句柄是个什么东东呢？其实很简单，句柄是一个东东的描述，他被定义为一个结构体，这个结构体可能会包含要描述的东东的具体信息，比如位置、大小、类型等等。我们有了这个描述信息我们就能去找到这个东东，然后操纵它。
一句话：句柄是物体的描述结构体。
我们来看看sqlite的句柄是怎么定义的(不要被吓到了，代码直接跳过就好)：
