Hi,
I can give you a Makefile which would build the DLL, but there are
certain problems with exported symbols when compiling examples:
- mysqlpp::Query - will ask for a destructor to be defined
- mysqlpp::Date - the same
- mysqlpp::Row - the same + constructor
I think for MINGW there should be added MYSQLPP_EXPORT in many places
(mysqlpp::Date(const_string&) is not exported anywhere but used in examples)
Please accept my apoligies for providing incomplete work, but I'm a
newbie to Windows stuff. I think the Makefile is usable (copy it in
mysql++/lib/Makefile). With ceratin work to sources now I think we could
get examples working too.
You need pexports.exe in PATH
(http://www.emmestech.com/software/cygwin/pexports-0.43/download_pexports.html)
Regards,
Ovidiu
