char *sqlite3_str_finish(sqlite3_str*);
The sqlite3_str_finish(X) interface destroys the sqlite3_str object X and returns a pointer to a memory buffer obtained from sqlite3_malloc64() that contains the constructed string. The calling application should pass the returned value to sqlite3_free() to avoid a memory leak. The sqlite3_str_finish(X) interface may return a NULL pointer if any errors were encountered during construction of the string. The sqlite3_str_finish(X) interface will also return a NULL pointer if the string in sqlite3_str object X is zero bytes long.
