What is the canonical name of the file you are trying to load? For example, if you are trying to load the file "jitterbug.dll" from the directory "c:\a\b\c" then the canonical filename is "c:\a\b\c\jitterbug.dll"
It seems that you are being told that "c:\PMOProjects\libsqlite3decimal.dll" does not exist. Are you sure that the file exists and that you have permission to read/execute it? -- The fact that there's a Highway to Hell but only a Stairway to Heaven says a lot about anticipated traffic volume. >-----Original Message----- >From: sqlite-users <sqlite-users-boun...@mailinglists.sqlite.org> On >Behalf Of Jose Isaias Cabrera >Sent: Tuesday, 26 November, 2019 13:28 >To: SQLite mailing list <sqlite-users@mailinglists.sqlite.org> >Subject: Re: [sqlite] Passing a path to sqlite3.exe to load a dll > > >Keith Medcalf, on Tuesday, November 26, 2019 02:57 PM, wrote... >> >> >> Escape the reverse solstice with a duplicate reverse solstice (\ -> \\) >or replace them >> with normal solstice (\ -> /) since Windows recognizes either as the >path separator. >> The CLI, like most things, parses escape sequences on input. >> >> Same applies to the C API function.
