What is the best way to connect and use a sqlite database from C#

Question

I\'ve done this before in C++ by including sqlite.h but is there a similarly easy way in C#?

Answer 1

Mono comes with a wrapper, use theirs!

https://github.com/mono/mono/tree/master/mcs/class/Mono.Data.Sqlite/Mono.Data.Sqlite_2.0 gives code to wrap the actual SQLite dll ( http://www.sqlite.org/sqlite-shell-win32-x86-3071300.zip found on the download page http://www.sqlite.org/download.html/ ) in a .net friendly way. It works on Linux or Windows.

This seems the thinnest of all worlds, minimizing your dependence on third party libraries. If I had to do this project from scratch, this is the way I would do it.
