Is there a way to buile the last release of mysql-python against the libraries of MySQL 5.0? I am really looking at just evaluating MySQL 5.

Cheers!

  I have tried to do so with win2k, vcc6, mysql-5.0.16, python-2.3.5, mysql-python.1.20.
  
  The same mysqlclient_r problem came; compiling with mysqlclient yields numerous errors like this:
  
  '''libcmt.lib(dosmap.obj) : error LNK2005: __errno already defined'''.
  
  AFAIK, this is due to mix of single- and multy-threaded libs.
  However, mysql5 doc states, that "the Windows binaries are by default compiled to be thread-safe", see http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/threaded-clients.html

  As far as I know, there are no C API changes in MySQL-5.0 relative to 4.1, so it should just work. Install MySQL-5.0.3, build MySQL-python, report your results. You can probably use the 4.1 client library with the 5.0 server without any difficulties.
