Hello,

I have installed the MySQL API on a Debian box and am trying to compile a simple1.cc in the examples directory. Its not finding mysql.h, which is included by defs, which is included by sqlplus.hh - the error is:

In file included from /usr/include/sqlplus/sqlplus.hh:9, from test.cc: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 test.cc:3:

. . <more errors - probably based on this file above> .

I tried doing a find but can't find the mysql.h file anywhere. Next, I downloaded the soruce and it didn't have the file either. The mailing list has a post on this issue, which says:

You need the MySQL development stuff. Likely your MySQL installation only includes the program itself, not the library and headers.

I do think that I have all the other libraries and headers - not sure what other development stuff is being referred to.

Please help me out! I really want to use this API but am having no luck so far. Where can I get this mysql.h file from?

Thank you, Mohit

Beside MySQL++ you must install our C API too.

Sincerely,
