    MySQL header problems

    Hi,

    I relatively new to C, and want to connect to/query a MySQL server. I have MySQL installed on my pc (Ubuntu), and it works fine with PHP, but following this tutorial: http://www.ucl.ac.uk/is/mysql/c/ I dont have mysql.h on my pc, and cant find it anywhere. Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Nick

    You will need the MySQL C API. Searching google might help you on that one.

    Get the right download, looks like their's an Ubuntu download. There'll be a /include/ folder full of includes.
