I have a question regarding compiling a C program with the mysql C api. >From the documentation, the only way I really see explained for compiling is a shell script that looks like this:
CFG=/usr/bin/mysql_config sh -c "gcc -o $1 `$CFG --cflags` $1.c `$CFG --libs`" This works great when all my source code is in one file. However, I need to modularize things and do separate compile and link steps. When I do this, sh -c "gcc -o $1 `$CFG --cflags` $1.c" It complains that it cannot find the header file for mysql.h. This does not make sense to me. Also, I do not understand why I need to do the sh -c. Why can I not just do the gcc part here? I really want to build a makefile but I am just trying to take baby steps here (I am new to Linux programming). Thanks.
