Method: SQLite3::Database#initialize

Defined in:
lib/sqlite3/database.rb

#initialize(file_name, options = {}) ⇒ Database

Create a new Database object that opens the given file. If utf16 is true, the filename is interpreted as a UTF-16 encoded string.

By default, the new database will return result rows as arrays (#results_as_hash) and has type translation disabled (#type_translation=).
