WIN10 compiling Sqlcipher steps

Preparatory work

• Visual Studio, other versions not validated, estimated problems are not very large
• activestate ActivePerl, for compiling OpenSSL
• Mingw, download minimum installer installation on official website
• MASM, assembly code operating environment, download and install the official website

• activestate Activetcl, need to use TCLSH tool

  Please install the above software beforehand, note that some software will need to add environment variable manually after installation.

• OpenSSL source code , download on the official website can
• sqlcipher Source code , download on the official website can

Installing OpenSSL

1. Administrator Privileges Open the VS2015 command-line window and use the cd /d XXX command to switch to the OpenSSL directory

2. Execute the following command:

   • perl Configure VC-WIN32
   • nmake
   • nmake testIf the configuration is successful, the step outputs all tests successful
   • nmake installOfficial installation command, 32-bit machine installed by default on C:\Program Files (x86) \openssl folder

3. Two library files are now generated in the installation directory:

   • Dynamic Library file Libcrypto-1_1.dll (located in the./bin directory)
   • Static library file Libcrypto.lib (located in the./lib directory)

Compiling Sqlcipher

2. Copy the two library files generated in the previous step to the Sqlcipher home directory
4. administrator rights to run the C:\mingw\msys\1.0\msys.bat batch file into the Msys shell command environment
6. cd /d XXXswitch to the Sqlcipher directory with commands
8. To modify the sqlite3.c file, add the following code at the beginning of the file:

   #define SQLITE_HAS_CODEC 1#define sqlite_enable_rtree 1#define sqlite_enable_column_metadata 1#define SQLITE_TEMP_ STORE 2

10. Continue to modify the sqlite3.c file by adding the following code at the end of the file:

    #include <sqlcipher/crypto.c>      /*** sqlcipher addition ***/#include <sqlcipher/crypto_cc.c>      /*** SQLCIPHER addition ***/#include <sqlcipher/crypto_impl.c>/*** SQLCIPHER addition ***/#include <sqlcipher/ crypto_openssl.c>/*** SQLCIPHER addition ***/#include <sqlcipher/pager.c>       /*** SQLCIPHER addition ***/

12. Run the following command to configure:

    ./configure--enable-tempstore=yes--with-crypto-lib=none--disable-tcl cflags= "-dsqlite_has_codec-dsqlite_ TEMP_store=2-dnocrypt-lcrypto-dsqlcipher_crypto_openssl-i/c/progra~2/openssl/include/d/mysoftware/ SQLCIPHER/SQLCIPHER-MASTER/LIBCrypto.dll-l/d/mysoftware/sqlcipher/sqlcipher-master/-STATIC-LIBGCC " ldflags= "Libcrypto.lib"

14. Execute command:
    • make clean
    • make, generate the executable file Sqlcipher.exe
    • make dll, create a library file Sqlite3.dll

So far, the Sqlcipher source code has been compiled.
