[Mysql-cocoa-users] Re: SMySQL Installation

[Rob P. <ro...@in...>]

Hello Serge,

Thank you for taking the time to reply, I really appreciate it.

I am attempting to connect to a remote MySQL server, not localhost. So=20=

I'm assuming I shouldn't use the "SMySQL.framework" flavor. (I am a=20
newbie to Cocoa, but I've worked with other programming languages.)

I have copied the _static frameworks to "/Library/Frameworks", and=20
changed my header file in Project Builder to "#import=20
<SMySQL_static/SMySQL.h>". Then when building, I received the following=20=

errors:

/Library/Frameworks/SMySQL_static.framework/Headers/SMySQL.h:30: header=20=

file 'SMySQL/SMySQLConstants.h' not found
/Library/Frameworks/SMySQL_static.framework/Headers/SMySQL.h:31: header=20=

file 'SMySQL/MCPNull.h' not found
/Library/Frameworks/SMySQL_static.framework/Headers/SMySQL.h:32: header=20=

file 'SMySQL/MCPResult.h' not found
/Library/Frameworks/SMySQL_static.framework/Headers/SMySQL.h:33: header=20=

file 'SMySQL/MCPConnection.h' not found
/Library/Frameworks/SMySQL_static.framework/Headers/SMySQL.h:34: header=20=

file 'SMySQL/MCPResultPlus.h' not found
/Library/Frameworks/SMySQL_static.framework/Headers/SMySQL.h:35: header=20=

file 'SMySQL/MCPFastQueries.h' not found
appController.h:10: undefined type, found `SMySQLConnection'
<built-in>:1:1: no macro name given in #define directive

I simply changed the file paths from "SMySQL/" to "SMySQL_static/".=20
That got rid of those problems. However, now I get these errors:

appController.h:10: undefined type, found `SMySQLConnection'
In file included from appController.m:2:
	appController.h:10: parse error before "SMySQLConnection"
appController.m:7: `mySQLConnection' undeclared (first use in this=20
function)
appController.m:7: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
appController.m:7: for each function it appears in.)
appController.m:7: `SMySQLConnection' undeclared (first use in this=20
function)

How can I fix this?

Thanks,

Rob P.
