Install the package libmysqlcppconn-dev from the repos, then add /usr/include/cppconn to the include directories and mysqlcppconn to the link libraries of your project.

I wouldn't use NetBeans for C++ development, it's mainly a Java IDE.
In Code::Blocks, you do it in Project/Build options/Search directories.

In NetBeans it can be done in the project settings ("C++ compiler" for include directories and "Linker" for libraries).

Code::Blocks.
Since the version that comes with Ubuntu 10.04 is very old, it's a good idea to add an additional repository in order to update to the latest version:
