Hi,

I have installed libsqlplus-dev on Debian testing and am trying to us it but I am having absolutely no luck whatsoever...

Basically, when I try and build anything (including the simple example in the manual) I get pages of errors complaining about syntax errors in the various header files etc.

Eg.

In file included from /usr/include/sqlplus/sqlplus.hh:9, from foo.cpp:3: /usr/include/sqlplus/defs:5:19: mysql.h: No such file or directory In file included from /usr/include/sqlplus/sqlplus.hh:9, from foo.cpp:3: /usr/include/sqlplus/defs:19: error: syntax error before `;' token In file included from /usr/include/sqlplus/coldata1.hh:8, from /usr/include/sqlplus/sqlplus.hh:12, from foo.cpp:3: /usr/include/sqlplus/type_info1.hh:10:19: mysql.h: No such file or directory In file included from /usr/include/sqlplus/coldata1.hh:8, from /usr/include/sqlplus/sqlplus.hh:12, from foo.cpp:3: /usr/include/sqlplus/type_info1.hh: In copy constructor ` mysql_ti_sql_type_info::mysql_ti_sql_type_info(const mysql_ti_sql_type_info&)': /usr/include/sqlplus/type_info1.hh:29: error: `assert' undeclared (first use this function)

<SNIP>

I notice the first error is complaining about not being able to find mysql.h... Could this be the source of the problem? What extra libraries (if any) do I need to install?

What am I missing?

Btw. I am using g++ (gcc version 3.3.2 20031005 (Debian prerelease) )

Suggestions?

Cheers,

M
