I am trying to use the C API to MySQL using the DJGPP compiler under Win32.

The problem is that DJGPP expects a library called libmysqlclient.a, whereas MySQL comes with a library called mysqlclient.lib. And appears that it is not just the names that differ.

The source code for MyODBC is available, and I have downloaded it. But I don't know what to do next. For example, some of the modules claim they are just examples. So what should be compiled and put in the library?

Also, there is a huge makefile, which is probably Microsoft compiler specific. Can it be ignored?

Has anyone got this working?

Thanks - Michael

HI!

Instead of using DJGPP, please use CygWin or MingW32.

You will find a link on the www.mysql.com site to the site which carries all necessary libraries and patches for the above two compilers on Win32.
