Re: [sqlite] Compiling the linux package on windows using LCC ?
There is a source distribution which has been configured for Windows on the Sqlite website. Try starting with that. If you use the regular source distribution you need to have an environment where you can run the configure shell script to customize the distribution to your OS.

Re: [sqlite] Compiling the linux package on windows using LCC ?
I'd like to update on my current status regarding the subject. After 3 and a half headaches, I managed to output an obj and link it with the definitions file. However: (using pseudo-paths for the sake of readability) 1) In LCC I'm using the following switches: /ansic /o "path-for\output.obj" "path-to\main.c" It produces 0 errors and 27 warnings.. I believe I can move on from here, despite warnings. 2) In LCCLNK I'm using the following: /dll "path-to\output.obj" "path-to\sqlite3.def" I'm getting a ton of "Specified export XX is not defined" ...And later on a "Missing exports. Aborting" message. Why is this happening?, did I compiled it wrong or the exports file I've got is not the correct one? (from dll package - sqlite3 website). Perhaps compiling just main.c is not how it should be done? if so, what should I do in order to properly compile all the sources? - This time I'm using the "pre-processed" version of the sources for windows, since I gave up on the other package...
