The best way to learn something thoroughly is to put yourself in a 
position where you must explain it to someone else.  I've probably 
learned more about MySQL++ since I started updating the documentation 
than in the prior year or so of just using it.

I don't know.  Boil the problem you are seeing down to a small test 
case, and I will know if it's a documentation weakness or a MySQL++ bug.

Perhaps, but I'll bet you're capable of acquiring that experience.
