From the download sqlite.org/download, they provide Precompiled Binaries for Windows for both x86 and x64.
So, what gets downloaded is a .def file and a .dll file.
Using this two files you can create the .lib file.
[Command: lib /def:yourfile.def /out:yourfile.lib]
On creating the .lib file and using it as a dependency, things are working fine for x86. But for x64, Visual Studio is showing the error:
LNK4272: library machine type 'X86' conflicts with target machine type 'x64'
Is anyone else facing this?
Found out where I was going wrong.
While creating the .lib file, we should be using the following command:
lib /def:sqlite3.def /machine:X64 /out:sqlite3.lib
I was skipping the /machine:X64 option before.
Better to see what are all the options provided by a command.
Example:
lib /?
The output will be:
usage: LIB [options] [files]
options:
/DEF[:filename]
/ERRORREPORT:{NONE|PROMPT|QUEUE|SEND}
/EXPORT:symbol
