method as the database is automatically closed when there are no
more references. It is ok to call the method multiple times.</p>
<p>If your user defined functions or collations have direct or indirect
references to the Connection then it won’t be automatically garbage
collected because of circular referencing that can’t be
automatically broken. Calling <em>close</em> will free all those objects
and what they reference.</p>
<p>SQLite is designed to survive power failures at even the most
awkward moments. Consequently it doesn’t matter if it is closed
when the process is exited, or even if the exit is graceful or
abrupt. In the worst case of having a transaction in progress, that
transaction will be rolled back by the next program to open the
database, reverting the database to a know good state.</p>

method is useful if there are other C level libraries in the same
process and you want them to use the APSW connection handle. The
value is returned as a number using <code class="xref py py-meth docutils literal"><span class="pre">PyLong_FromVoidPtr()</span></code> under the
hood. You should also ensure that you increment the reference count on
the <a class="reference internal" href="#apsw.Connection" title="apsw.Connection"><code class="xref py py-class docutils literal"><span class="pre">Connection</span></code></a> for as long as the other libraries are using
