<para>
<function>sqlite_udf_encode_binary</function> applies a binary encoding
to the <parameter>data</parameter> so that it can be safely returned from
queries (since the underlying libsqlite API is not binary safe).
</para>
<para>
If there is a chance that your data might be binary unsafe (e.g.: it
contains a NUL byte in the middle rather than at the end, or if it has and
<literal>0x01</literal> byte as the first character) then you must
call this function to encode the return value from your UDF.
</para>
<para>
PHP does not perform this encode/decode operation automatically as it would
severely impact performance if it did.
</para>
<note>
<para>
Do not use <function>sqlite_escape_string</function> to quote strings
returned from UDF's as it will lead to double-quoting of the data. Use
<function>sqlite_udf_encode_binary</function> instead!
