Hello,

Sorry about the stupid question.  But I am a FNG to C and MySQL.  But=20
here goes>>>
I am currently running Redhat 5.1, MySQL 3_22_20a, (I have installed  =
Bench, Client and Devel packages also) and glibc-2_0_7-19.
Now the stupid part:
Can someone please provide the proper syntax to simply connect to MySQL. =
 Assuming the Database is "test"?  I assume, I would use  =
MySQL_Real_Connect().  As you know, If the syntax is not exactly  =
correct, I will get compile errors.
Also, to avoid stupid questions in the future, can someone please point  =
me to the proper C API manual for MySQL?
Thanks a million,

Tom
