How to set the mysql c api to use it?

sworker

It mainly depends on which directory libmysqlclient.a is in. For example, mine is under /usr/local/mysql/lib, and the corresponding include is under /usr/local/mysql/include. Then the makefile can be written like this:

CC=gcc
INCLUDES = -I/usr/local/mysql/include
LIBS = -L/usr/local/mysql/lib -lmysqlclient -lz

example:example.o
CC -o -g example example.o $(LIBS)

example.o:example.c
CC $(INCLUDES) -c -g example.c

After this is written, the source code of <mysql/mysql.h> should be changed to <mysql.h>, because the location of mysql.h has been specified in the makefile.
