## Destroy A Prepared Statement Object

>     int sqlite3_finalize(sqlite3_stmt *pStmt);

The sqlite3_finalize() function is called to delete a prepared statement. If the statement was executed successfully or not executed at all, then SQLITE_OK is returned. If execution of the statement failed then an error code or extended error code is returned.

This routine can be called at any point during the execution of the prepared statement. If the virtual machine has not completed execution when this routine is called, that is like encountering an error or an interrupt. Incomplete updates may be rolled back and transactions canceled, depending on the circumstances, and the error code returned will be SQLITE_ABORT.
