问题
I need to compile the rtree extension for SQLite from source code. The readme includes these instructions:
The easiest way to compile and use the RTREE extension is to build and use it as a dynamically loadable SQLite extension. To do this using gcc on *nix:
gcc -shared rtree.c -o libSqliteRtree.soYou may need to add "-I" flags so that gcc can find sqlite3ext.h and sqlite3.h. The resulting shared lib, libSqliteRtree.so, may be loaded into sqlite in the same way as any other dynamicly loadable extension.
Problem I'm having is that I'm on Windows, not Linux, and so need to use MSVC. I tried:
cl rtree.c -link -out:libSqliteRtree.so
This gave cannot open include file errors until I found the various .h files it was complaining about and moved them into the same directory. Now, however, it's gotten to:
/out:rtree.exe
-out:libSqliteRtree.so
rtree.obj
Creating library libSqliteRtree.lib and object libSqliteRtree.exp
LINK : fatal error LNK1561: entry point must be defined
I admit I have pretty much zero clue what I'm doing in a compiler, and I'm not sure where to go from here to resolve its problem. Am I "translating" the compiler flags correctly from GCC to MSVC? What else can I tweak to try to get the SQLite extension out of the source code? Should I beg a favor from a developer on ateam with a Linux server and ask them to do it for me?
回答1:
Thanks to Shawn for commenting to look at the SQLite Run-Time Loadable Extensions documentation, which had more information in it:
To compile on Windows using MSVC, a command similar to the following will usually work:
cl YourCode.c -link -dll -out:YourCode.dll
So for my situation: cl rtree.c -link -dll -out:libSqliteRtree.dll worked.
