Thanks, but allow me to clarify my problem - like you, I don't have a
problem with gcc or compiling MySQL. Running mysql seems to work fine. The
problem is only with MySQL++ and how gcc handles exceptions. If you have a
chance, could you try compiling MySQL++ and running one of their examples?
For me, even resetdb just Aborts.
Thanks

8. I read in the README that gcc 2.95.2 has known problems with exceptions,
so I tried egcs-20000306 but still had no luck (both from
www.sunfreeware.com). My program just aborts.

around this, or know of a binary download available? mySQL itself seems to
be working OK.
