mysql.lib

[alexprg1920]

hi all.
i wanna to connect to sql database, so i need mysql.lib, right?
where can i get it?

Yes, you need the MYSQL development files. you will also need mysql.h too. You can find all these on the MYSQL website. If you are using C++ however, I would recommend using MYSQL++ as this is a much more powerful API (to use MYSQL++ you will also need to download the C MYSQL API).


MYSQL C API - http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/c/6.0.html
MYSQL++ C++ API - http://tangentsoft.net/mysql++/

#pragma comment(lib, "C:\\MySQL++\\3.0.9\\lib\\libmysql.lib");
#pragma comment(lib, "C:\\MySQL++\\3.0.9\\lib\\mysqlclient.lib");

[alexprg1920]

People!

[alexprg1920]

#pragma comment(lib, "C:\\MySQL++\\3.0.9\\lib\\libmysql.lib")
#pragma comment(lib, "C:\\MySQL++\\3.0.9\\lib\\mysqlclient.lib")
#pragma comment(lib, "delayimp")

and add to compiler's options /DELAYLOAD option, but

LINK : warning LNK4199: /DELAYLOAD:C:\MySQL++\3.0.9\lib\libmysql.dll ignored; no imports found from C:\MySQL++\3.0.9\lib\libmysql.dll
