Hi,
I need your help for connecting to MySql database via C++.
I downloaded xammp, it is working properly. I have mysql libraries, etc. under xammp.
i can easily reach to the database via php code.
i try to use c++ and in c++ code i have:

#include "my_global.h" 
#include "mysql.h"

But when i try to use C++ for this purpose i have the error:

Cannot open include file: 'mysql.h': No such file or directory<br />
Cannot open include file: 'my_global.h': No such file or directory<br />

However, i can see those files under mysql include directory.
Any help please?
Thanks...

thanks..
But when i include the mysql include path program gives 103 errors; one, for ex, is:
c:\program files\microsoft sdks\windows\v6.1\include\mprapi.h(1374) : error C2143: syntax error : missing ';' before '__stdcall'
i could not understand the reason...
Any idea,
thanks again
