I am using the most up-to-date version of CodeWarrior, v8.3, and I have
tried with several different versions of MySQL - 3.23.55, standard
4.0.9, and standard 4.0.10. CodeWarrior will not let me import the
library files into my project. In the compiler's documentation I read
that on Mac OS a library has a file type of 'MPLF' and a creator of
'CWIE'. The distributed libraries have no creator or file type, but
this makes sense because they are not Mac OS files. If I manually
munge the file's type and creator code to these values CodeWarrior will
successfully import the file into the project, but compilation results
in a "Illegal object file data" error. So I am assuming that there is
some deeper level of incompatibility between the format of the library
files and what CodeWarrior expects to use.
So what are my options? If nobody has a CodeWarrior version of the
header files available, I am assuming I can attempt to compile one
myself. I downloaded a 4.0.10 gamma distribution which appears to have
all the necessary source code. I am a relative newbie to the world of
unix-based programming - I've never even used the make utility before.
Am I setting myself up for a world of pain?
thanks again for your help.
Ben
