[Dev-C++] mysqld lib, and others...

[<gen...@ya...>]

Dear all,
about the mysql lib thing, you can't link a MSVC++/BCB library with MinGW/gcc. you can create an import library (like Josef did), but i never tried that, so i don't know if it'll work. i still think impdef is the way to go, but then, i might not know too much. try searching for 'MySQL' and 'MinGW' in Google. there was a person who supplied a devpak that contained a mysql library file (never tested it). i think it was YeohHS or something like that. (no offence meant, please).
 
i'm a Nigerian, and while i understand that many of my countrymen are involved in fraudulent schemes, it still hurts to find out that almost everyone in Nigeria is labelled as a fraudster. i've been on this list for almost a year now, and while i'm not an active poster (like Per, Balazs, or Mohanlec) (if i miss the spelling, pls excuse me?), i've never tried to defraud anyone. pls, help me out, okay? thanks in advance.

Hello,

I believe it was Kip Warner who created a DevPak for MySQL.  :-)
And it can be downloaded from Dev-C++ via Tools -> Check for 
Updates/Packages.

Okay, no problem. :-) I don't believe every Nigerian is a fraudster.

Best Regards,
