Expected Behavior

I have installed VS 2017 and I am trying to build the sqlcipher command (as in Ubuntu 18) for my Windows 10 x64.

Actual Behavior

but I get the below error:

…\Makefile.msc(2547) : fatal error U1052: file ‘…\sqlite\ext\lsm1\Makefile.msc’ not found

Steps to Reproduce

so I tried to do so by

    mkdir bld
    cd bld
    nmake /f Makefile.msc sqlite3.exe TOP=..\sqlite

But firstly I get the below error which is pretty obvious. It is most likely because in the bld folder there is no Makefile.msc.

NMAKE : fatal error U1052: file ‘Makefile.msc’ not found
Stop.
**

So I tried to fix that by adding “…” before Makefile.msc

**
nmake /f …\Makefile.msc sqlite3.exe TOP=…\sqlite
^
**

But then I get the below error which I believe is pretty obviously because I don’t have the sqlite source folder in the source folder but I don’t know where to get the source for sqlite and how to fix this.

to be honest I couldn’t find a step by step instruction on how to build sqlcipher using MSVC. The only one I found is this which is pretty old.

I would appreciate if sb could shed some light.

Thank you
