I'm trying to use SQLite3 in D, but am getting a segmentation fault when I attempt to replace the exec statement with a prepare statement.  What am I doing wrong?

If the prepare statement is commented out, and the exec statement is uncommented, the program runs successfully.  (There's no data yet in the database file.)

The test program is:

pragma    (lib, "sqlite3");


import    etc.c.sqlite3;
import    std.exception;
import    std.stdio;
import    std.string;

/**    int function(void*, int, char**, char**) callback    */
extern(C)
int    callback    (void* notUsed, int argc, char** argv, char** azColName)
{
    for    (int i = 0;    i < argc;    i++)
    {    printf ("%s = %s\n", azColName[i], argv[i] ? argv[i] : "null");    }
    printf    ("\n");
    return    0;
}

void    main()
{    sqlite3*    db;
    int        rc;
    char*        zErrMsg    =    null;
    sqlite3_stmt**    stmt;

    rc    =    sqlite3_open (toStringz("data/sqlitetest.db"), &db);
    if    (SQLITE_OK != rc)
    {    printf ("DB create error: %s\n", sqlite3_errmsg(db) );    }

    string    sql    =
        "create table if not exists wrds (name text primary key, id int)\0";
    rc    =    sqlite3_exec(db, sql.ptr, &callback, cast(void*)0, &zErrMsg);
    if    (SQLITE_OK != rc)
    {    printf ("DB create table error: %s\n", sqlite3_errmsg(db) );
        printf    ("sql = <<%s>>\n", sql);
    }

    sql    =    "select * from wrds\0";
    rc    =    sqlite3_prepare(db, toStringz(sql), cast(int)sql.length, stmt, null);
//    if    (SQLITE_OK != rc)
//    {    printf ("DB prepare statement error: %s\n", sqlite3_errmsg(db) );
//        printf    ("sql = <<%s>>\n", sql);
//    }
//    rc    =    sqlite3_step(*stmt);
//    if    (SQLITE_OK != rc)
//    {    printf ("DB statement step error: %s\n", sqlite3_errmsg(db) );
//        printf    ("sql = <<%s>>\n", sql);
//    }
//
//    rc    =    sqlite3_exec(db, sql.ptr, &callback, cast(void*)0, &zErrMsg);
//    if    (SQLITE_OK != rc)
//    {    printf ("DB select error: %s\n", sqlite3_errmsg(db) );
//        printf    ("sql = <<%s>>\n", sql);
//    }
//
    rc    =    sqlite3_close    (db);
    enforce    (rc == SQLITE_OK);
}

Sorry I'm not a sqlite3 expert, nor do I have access to DMD at the moment so cannot fully test but that sqlite3_stmt** looks wrong, try this:

change:
---
sqlite3_stmt**    stmt;
...
rc= sqlite3_prepare(db, toStringz(sql), cast(int)sql.length, stmt, null);
...
rc=    sqlite3_step(*stmt);
---

to:
---
sqlite3_stmt*    stmt;
...
rc= sqlite3_prepare(db, toStringz(sql), cast(int)sql.length, &stmt, null);
...
rc=    sqlite3_step(stmt);
---

I think (from ancient memory) that you also need to clean up the statement with something like:

sqlite_finalize(stmt);

but don't quote me on that :D

You're right about the finalize, but changing the line to:
rc    =    sqlite3_prepare(db, toStringz(sql), cast(int)sql.length + 1000, &stmt, null);
results in the compile time error:
sqlitetest.d(39): Error: function etc.c.sqlite3.sqlite3_prepare (sqlite3* db, const(char)* zSql, int nByte, sqlite3_stmt** ppStmt, const(char*)* pzTail) is not callable using argument types (sqlite3*, immutable(char)*, int, sqlite3_stmt***, typeof(null))
