Hi!

On Solaris 8. for Sparc, I had similar problems. I upgrade automake, autoconfig libtool, added the depcomp , and was able to make mysql++ such that I could compile and run the examples correctly. Also , I had to downgrade my version of gcc. Then I abandoned it for an alternate solution to my problem.

After half year of experimenting with mysql++ finally I've decided also that this is the only possible solution. MySQL++ in its current state is an obsolete, standard-incompatible, buggy and, the worst thing, _unmaintainable_ piece of shi..., sorry, software. It's distribution is completely broken, even _version_ _number_ of created library is wrong!!! It is so pity that MySQL guys pay zero attention to C++ :-(((

Can you recommend some good alternative or plain C API is the only way to go?

I forked MySQL++ a while ago so that it could be properly maintained. But it will not be perfected unless you (plural) help out: http://mysqlcppapi.sourceforge.net/
