title: Creating an sqlite3.lib file / using sqlite3 in Visual Studios
body: <p>I can't for the life of my get this code to compile. I have it running fine on all other computers, but I had to switch to a windows machine and I am attempting to add sqlite3 back to the included header files and it is nothing short of a nightmare. </p>
  
  <p>I have downloading the proper files, installed it correctly, the header file is being found in Visual Studios, but I am getting a ton of unresolved externals. I found that I need to create the .lib file myself and then I should be all set. I went ahead and tried using the LIB.exe included within Visual Studios on the .def file ( I have the .def, .dll, .c, and .exe file), and I get the error that it is unable to open sqlite3.lib. Am I using the wrong command or something? I have spent hours looking it up and I believe I am doing it correctly. </p>
  
  <p>My command is LIB /DEF:sqlite3.def</p>
  
  <p>Should I be using something else? I do not have any object files, just the def file. </p>
