SpatiaLite  4.3.0
demo5.c

This is a sample C source showing how to use the SpatiaLite's API gaiaGetVectorLayersList(), i.e. the one gathering statistic infos for Vector Layers. The typical output of this demo is shown below.

By simply specifying a DB-path demo5 will print the complete list of all Vector Layers found in that DB:
