Lacks of example, right?
Let's try to give to SQlite3 the capability like ones of MySQL's
- REGEXP operator,
- MD5 function, and
- GROUP_CONCAT aggregate function

$db = new SQLite3($filename);
$db->createFunction('regexp', function ($a,$b) { return preg_match("/$a/i", $b); });
$db->createFunction('md5', function ($a) { return md5($a); });
$db->createAggregate ('group_concat',
            function(&$context, $rownumber, $str) { $context[]=$str; return $context; },
            function(&$context) {return implode(",", (array) $context); });
