SQL:
SELECT

FROM
  sqlite_master
WHERE
  type in ('table', 'view')
AND
  name not like 'sqlite?_%' escape '?'

hello MicroDrie
Thanks for the reply

I have to take table schema with RDC2 Remote Database Connector (RDC2)
I put this command in the config.properties file

sql.select_schema = SELECT sql \
FROM sqlite_schema \
WHERE name =?

Codice B4A:
Dim req As DBRequestManagerRS = CreateRequest
        Dim cmd As DBCommand = CreateCommand("select_schema", Array(nameTable))
        Wait For (req.ExecuteQuery(cmd, 0, Null)) JobDone(j As HttpJob)
        If j.Success Then
            req.HandleJobAsync(j, "req")
            Wait For (req) req_Result(res As DBResult)
            Dim r As Int = 0
            Dim schema As StringBuilder
            schema.Initialize
            For Each row() As Object In res.Rows
                schema.Append(row(r)): r= r +1
            Next
            j.Release

        Else
            Starter.SaveLog($"${nameModule}.Select_Schema job.error: ${j.ErrorMessage}"$)
        End If
error
(SQLiteException) org.sqlite.SQLiteException: [SQLITE_ERROR] SQL error or missing database (no such table: sqlite_schema)

In the SQLite documentation I read that you can create sqlite_schema. When I send the specified Query to a database with DB Browser for SQLite Version 3.12.2 I get an error:

Execution finished with errors.
Result: object name reserved for internal use: sqlite_schema
At line 1:
CREATE TABLE sqlite_schema(

Also query the sqlite_schema doesn't give a result

Execution finished with errors.
Result: no such table: sqlite_schema
At line 1:
SELECT * FROM sqlite_schema;
My conclusion is that the current security rules do not allow access to the sqlite_schema table. The documentation say:
SQLite creates the schema table upon database creation and modifies its content as SQLite users submit DDL statements for execution. There is no need for users to modify it under normal circumstances, and they bear the risk of database corruption if they do modify it.

I'm afraid only using sqlite_master table is left to use to find the table names.
