表中的 SQLite 列与表同名

Question

Hi there I have a database movies that contains a table country, with a column also called country. when attempting to use this column I have tried

country."country"
country.country
country FROM country

screenshot of my screen showing that there is a table named country and a column also called country, with the error in the right hand sidebar:

but the fact that they are the same name just keeps throwing an error. I am about to put my head through a wall I'm getting so frustrated. I have combed google and stack, but they just require that the table not have the same name as the database. I cannot seem to find a fix for this, any help is appreciated, and I am sorry if this has indeed been posted and answered elsewhere and I somehow missed it.

Answer 1

This is not about the table/column name: having a table column with the same name as the table it belongs to is unambiguous in SQL, since the syntax is clear enough about where a column name or a table name is expected.

Table country is not part of the from clause of your query, hence it is not available in the select clause.

You need to join that table, presumably with the incountry table:

inner join country on country.cid = incountry.cid

Then you can add country.country to the select clause.
