[Dev-C++] linking to a dll

[<ra...@am...>]

Hello,

I'm new to DevC++(V4.9.4.1) and I have problems to link to libmySQL.dll.
Here is what I'm doing:

I create a new project 'GUI' using FLTK.

I copy all headers file and dll to project directory.

I create libmySQL.def file using impdef.exe from Borland BCC55.

I create libmySQL.a using dlltool.exe

I add -lmysql to 'Linker Options/Optional Libs or Object files:' on
'General' Tab from Project Options dialog

I add #include "mysql.h" and some code to create a connection to mysql
server. The project compiles but Linker reports 2 errors:
undefined reference to mysql_init@4,
undefined reference to mysql_real_connect@32.

I don't know where I want to go after that! What did I miss?


Hope someone can help me


Many thanks
