Compiling on Mac OSX

SQLCipher
1

Hello,

I’m trying to compile SQL Cipher on Mac OSX but am encountering compilation errors.
My objective is to link the resulting SQLCipher static library in a Qt project, using Qt Creator (not doing anything with XCode).

I cloned the git repository.
I installed libcrypto via home brew (brew install openssl) and verified that worked ok.
I ran configure, which appears to have completed successfully.

sqlcipher > ./configure --enable-tempstore=yes CFLAGS="-DSQLITE_HAS_CODEC" LDFLAGS="/usr/local/opt/openssl/lib/libcrypto.a" CFLAGS="-I/usr/local/opt/openssl/include/"

During the make process, I there are compilation errors. Maybe I have to build OpenSSL by hand. This is where the error output starts, I can upload the whole output if needed.

Well, this may have been a case of the first CFLAGS argument getting overwritten by the second in the configure call. I changed it to one CFLAGS, and making appears to work.

sqlcipher > ./configure --enable-tempstore=yes CFLAGS="-DSQLITE_HAS_CODEC -I/usr/local/opt/openssl/include/" LDFLAGS="/usr/local/opt/openssl/lib/libcrypto.a"

Hi @rem45acp

Yes, you will only want to declare one CFLAGS variable to be passed to ./configure. We are glad to hear everything is working well for you now. Take care!
