Is it possible to use sqlite in a windows phone silverlight 8.1 project. I installed the sqlite for windows phone 8.1 (the .vsix file) but I couldn't find the reference?
SQLite for Windows Phone 8.1
Note that:
This is a pre-release version for beta testing use only. This is not a release.

I cannot find a Visual Studio 2017 project for making Xamarin.Forms Windows 8.1 apps. How do I install it?
Windows 8.1 Silverlight and RT are all deprecated. I would suggest doing a UWP app and targeting Windows 10 instead.
However, if you do want to do a Windows 8.1 project. Make sure you download the Windows 8.1 SDK, then create a new Xamarin.Forms project. Then you will have to add a new Windows 8.1 project afterwards, and manually add the Xamarin.Forms Init code, in the project.
You can have a look at XArch for an example.
But once again, I strongly recommend against, creating a Windows 8.1 project, and you should do UWP instead.
Hi i installed SQLite for Windows Phone 8.1 in visual studio 2013. I selected tools after Extensions and updates option after that i installed SQLite for Windows Phone 8.1 . The installation was successful i restarted the system.
But after when i click on add reference it is not showing sqlite for windows phone 8.1 .Please see below image for further information. I am unable to see this option.
Could any one advise me.
I did not seen SQLite for Windows Phone 8.1 option but i able to do Sqlite operations.
There is a build for Windows 8.1 but it was not build as a universal PCL. Contacted support but they said to ask here, to get a response from the developers.
NOTE: by universal I mean, Windows Store universal, that work on WP8.1 and W8.1
The latest GNSDK for Mobile release should support WP8.1. Please download the one with platform "Windows Phone 8."
Gracenote SDK is a native library. It is not an application. Just like any other third party library (like sqlite - check https://sqlite.org/download.html),
it porvideds winrt and windows phone libs.
How do you build the library to run on phone and winrt both ? Can you post link from MSDN on how to do it ?. I dont think you can do this for libraries which has native component/s to it.
Gracenote window phone libs are built using visual studio 2012 and should work for both windows phone 8.1 and windows phone 8.0.
How can I use SQLite Windows8.1 version in my Windows8 app, so as to provide compatibility with both Window8 and Windows8.1 platforms? I tried referencing the new beta version of SQLite Windows8.1 in VS2012, but it would not accept the dll as valid dll/assembly?
Do I have to create 2 vesions of the app, for both Windows8 and Windows8.1?
A version of an app build for windows 8 will also work on windows 8.1 but a version build for windows 8.1 will not work on windows 8 (and this is independent of Sqlite).
I'm developing an app for Windows Phone 7.1(7.5) - 8 (Must work for both) , in which database connectivity is required.
This Application is already realized for Iphone and Android, so I have to use there Database file to the database structure was the same for all applications. Sqlite is used as the database .
All Sqlite Clients for Windows Phone are out of date and not supported any more.

Official client is only for windows phone 8
http://www.sqlite.org/download.html
and is not working with windows phone 7.1
Will be really helpfull if someone can give me any suggestions what i can do with this situation.
develop only for Windows Phone 8 and use official Sqlite Client
use old libriaries for sqlite and try to work with them on windows phone 8
use SQL CE as the database
(PS. : The situation is further complicated by the fact that Windows RT is not support SQL CE and only Sqlite and it makes me crazy.)
I have used sqlite in my app for windows phone 7 as described in the dotnetslackers link and its working fine in WP 8 ( I tested in WP8 emulator).
I don't see any point for saying "All Sqlite Clients for Windows Phone are out of date and not supported any more". Did you try yourself ?
Also this link says "SQLite is now supported on Windows RT, Windows 8 Metro Apps and will be supported on Windows Phone 8 for local application storage."
And here is one more link, which I didn't test.
I suggest you to try the dotnetslackers link and post here if you face any problem. Good luck !!
Note that SQL Server Compact 4.0 does not have a release for Windows Mobile, Windows Phone or for Windows CE devices. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg592946.aspx
You can use SQL Server Compact 3.5 on WP 7.5, but I'm not sure if this version works on WP8.
