dev-c++与mysql
A:
The problem is that only MS Visual C++ can link libmysql.lib but there is a trick
to compile with Dev c++(I used version 4.9.9.2) or GCC:
> reimp.exe <FULL_PATH_OF(MySQL\lib\opt)>libmysql.lib
(^ This command creates: libmysql.def AND libmysql.a)
> dlltool.exe –input-def LIBMYSQL.def –dllname libmysql.dll –output-lib libmysql.dll
(^ this creates libmysql.dll)
Now You must copy libmysql.a in the “LIB” folder of dev-cpp (Ex. …\Dev-Cpp\lib\) and
and use “-lmysql -lws2_32″ as additional linker options
This way is good for all applications who needs to compile mysql library under
windows with dev c++ or GCC
