      <p>
            The BFILE extension can optionally make available to you some
            additional C language data types and functions for use with the
            SQLite C/C++ interface. These are available to you only if
            you take the proper steps when you compile Berkeley DB. See the
            <em class="citetitle">Berkeley DB Installation and Build Guide</em> for more information.
        </p>
      <p>
            Once enabled, the BFILE C extension makes the following new
            structure available to you:
        </p>
      <pre class="programlisting">typedef struct sqlite3_bfile sqlite3_bfile;</pre>
      <p>
            This structure serves as the BFILE handle when you are using
            the BFILE extension along with the SQLite C/C++ interface.
        </p>
      <p>
            In addition to the new structure, you can also use the
            following new C functions:
        </p>

                BFILE.
            </p>
        <p>
                On success, <code class="literal">SQLITE_OK</code> is returned and
