Hi,

I use a libmysqlclient.a from:

http://www.student.uni-koeln.de/cygwin/Distribution/Library/

This was created with B20.1 (and works fine for me on this platform) but it was also reported to link fine on 1.1.2.

regards, Markus

Hello,

I've been trying to get a c program to connect to a mysql database on my network. I compile in cygwin (on my NT box) and include the library libmysqlclient.a and the header file mysql.h. At first it didn't link because I got these files from a Linux box, but then I downloaded these files from the cygtools site. Now it links, but I think the library isn't working for some reason because my program locks at the call to mysql_init(). I've tried compiling this library on my machine, but the mysql source doesn't compile in cygwin. If my problem is a bad library, do you know where I can get the correct library or how to compile the mysql client source in cygwin? Thanks for your help,
