[Quickfix-developers] SQL support and libMySQL.lib

[Martin T. <mta...@ho...>]

Hi,

I compiled the quickfix project in order to have SQL support and got this 
fatal error:
"quickfix fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'libMySQL.lib'"

Here's what I did:
1-Download and extract latest sources.

2-I enabled "#define HAVE_MYSQL 1" from "../src/config_windows.h".

3-Add additional include directories where related SQL header and library 
(libMySQL.lib) can be found:
       ../;C:\mysql\include;C:\mysql\lib\opt

4-Set configuration type to be "Dynamic library (.dll)"

5-Set project to be in release mode.

6-I find out that a "typelib.h" was missing, so I copied it from :
      
http://leithal.cool-tools.co.uk/sourcedoc/mysql509/html/typelib_8h-source.html
      and paste it in the same folder as mysql.h

7-Rebuild project quickfix and got the specified error.  But the "missing" 
file libMySQL.lib is in the additional included directory.

Initially I compiled the project quickfix as a .lib library with success.

What am I doing wrong now to get it as a dll?

Thank you
Martin
