missing my_config.h

[pillesoft]

Dear All,

we've downloaded tag 1.2.2b1 from svn and tried to compile it.
we've missed my_config.h file.
what is it? from where we can get?

thank you
Ivan

Sounds like you don't have the MySQL development headers. Re-read README.

Hi,

errrr, it's a win32 thing

Downloaded mysql-4.1.21-win32.zip, which is an installer, installed everything, including "developer components" / "C include files / lib files".

Other .h files got installed (28,111 mysql.h, 39,304 my_global.h, ...). Where should the my_config.h be? I thought in the same include dir as the others...

[Andy Dustman]

On my system, it's in the same directory as mysql.h.

It's all C preprocessor #defines generated by the configure script. Many of them start with HAVE_. It may be that config_win.h is what you need. Modify _mysql.c to use that instead of my_config.h. If that fixes it, add a bug with the details so I'll remember to fix it.

when you install mySQL using windows, there is an option for header files.
maybe that will help?
