Hallo Gerrit, thanks for your help. I think I will now use your compiled libs instead of those provided by the MYSQL installer.
I still have a couple question if I want to recompile myself the libraries: 1) as I understand, the mysqlclient.a are compiled from the MYSQL source tree 2) where does the cygmysqlclient.dll library come from? Is it also compiled from the MYSQL source tree? 3) if I want to ship my MYSQL client that has been linked with libmysqlclient.a, I need cygwin.dll because my client is compiled under cygwin. If I am right I need to ship also cygmysqlclient.dll. Since the customer will have MYSQL installed, I am afraid that there could be a conflict with HIS libMySQL.dll, is that possible?
