Question

I am not able to create a database using SQLite with my Metro application.

Description:
I continue to receive a runtime exception on a failure to load SQLite3.dll.

Observation:
I observed that the database directory never gets created in the app package’s LocalState directory.
After observing this, I literally implemented file path creation at runtime and dropped the sqlite3.dll in the intended location.

Yet, I still receive an exception on failed to load SQLite3.dll.

1. My CRUD code that leverages SQLite compiles fine.
2. SQLite dependencies (packages.config, SQLite.cs, and sqlite3.dll) are located in a separate metro class library instead of the application’s executable project.
3. The sqlite3.dll is based on the ARM processor.
4. The sqlite3.dll is set to Content, Copy Always.

Code:

    SQLiteAsyncConnection connection = new SQLiteAsyncConnection(DATABASE_DIRECTORY_NAME);
    return await connection.CreateTableAsync<Service>();

Please help…
