Hi,

This great project seems used wxsqlite3 for Cipher, Sqlcipher is a more popular SQLite extension that provides 256 bit AES encryption of database files. i am wondering whether there is a plan to support it.

Link for Sqlcipher :
https://github.com/sqlcipher/sqlcipher

Yes i think so. If Cipher is more popular and the licences are OK, I think it could do that.

xeoshow commented 7 years ago

Great to hear that! Indeed SQLCipher is more popular(1971 stars on github) and the license is commercial friendly.

https://github.com/utelle/wxsqlite3 (wxsqlite3 got only 53 stars ...)

The issue with SQLCipher is it doesn't build on Windows. By design, actually by the looks of it -- they charge on their website for a DLL version.

Because of the pain even getting that to build, I've been using this plugin instead. Very happy with it :)

Please try version 1.0. I'll close this issue due to so long time.
