Thread: cannot find mysql++.h

Hi All

I just install the mysql++ api, but when I compile an example ( http://tangentsoft.net/mysql++/doc/u...html#id2860437 )
I get the following errors:

Code:

~/c++> c++ main.C
main.C:1:18: error: util.h: No such file or directory
main.C:3:21: error: mysql++.h: No such file or directory
main.C: In function ‘int main(int, char**)’:
main.C:14: error: ‘mysqlpp’ has not been declared
.....

mysql++.h is installed in /usr/local/include/mysql++
Also libmysqlpp.so is in /usr/local/lib (although I have no idea what its purpose is)
Also the util.h error bother me

Any help would be very welcome!!

Thnx a lot

Ok, now I tried the following command:
c++ main.C -lmysqlpp -I /usr/local/include/mysql++

Code:

~/c++> c++ main.C -lmysqlpp -I /usr/local/include/mysql++

I get the impression this has nothing to do with my main.C program, because main.C looks like this

Code:

#include <mysql++.h>

#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>

using namespace std;

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    return 0;
}

Any suggestion where all the errors come from ?

ps mysql.h is located at /usr/include

Not sure why but this compiles

Code:

c++ -o xxx -I/usr/include/mysql -I/usr/include/mysql++/ -I/usr/local/include/mysql++/ -lmysqlpp -lmysqlclient main.C
