Project causes compilation issues when included in other projects on Windows: __imp___iob_func

golang/go#57455 (comment)

Short issue is that adding this dependency to a project that is compiled with more recent versions of Windows breaks the project possibly due to some binary dependencies or c code included in the go-sqlite3 project. The problem manifests when you take a project that compiles just fine and add this project to it as a dependency then you go to build and you get :

@steowens As mentioned in golang/go#57455 this issue is caused by cgo itself. If you are unable to avoid transitively importing this library (or any other that relies on cgo), I would suggest forcibly setting CGO_ENABLED=0 when you compile until the compiler is fixed.

Thanks I was able to resolve the issue to switching to github.com/glebarez/go-sqlite go native sqlite and thereby eliminating the cgo dependency.
