Hey @ouliuquan 👋🏻 This repo is for
sqlite3, not@vscode/sqlite3, which was a fork of this repo but they've since recommended to use this original version instead. Would you be able to try with the latestsqlite3?ouliuquan commentedon Sep 13, 2022
@daniellockyer Hi Daniel, I was building VSCode source got stuck by this question, @vscode/sqlite3 is used by VSCode's package.json, I follow the https://www.npmjs.com/package/@vscode/sqlite3 to find here.
I create this issue to solve the VSCode building problem, hope to find some help here.
daniellockyer commentedon Sep 13, 2022
The VSCode fork comes here because it's a fork of this repo and the URL has not been updated.
This repo should build and run on most common systems 🙂

@daniellockyer Hi, I have been known that @vscode/sqlite3 is not your repo, it's so sorry about this issue.
The truely repo is here https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-node-sqlite3, thanks for your patience
daniellockyer commentedon Sep 16, 2022
No problem 🙂
