static linking mysqlpp

[Vincent David]

Hi.

I was just considering linking mysqlpp statically in my recent project. The 
reason why I'm thinking about this, is because I'd like my project to be 
portabel to other machines (i.e. our compute cluster) without having to 
recompile and drag the libraries along.

Would that be a wise thing to do?

Is there a simple option to configure/make the mysqlpp libraries statically. 
(As far I understand I just get a dynamic library after compiling mysqlpp)?

Do I violate the GPL in any way by doing so (w/o publishing my project)?

Is this the wrong forum to ask such stuff and/or did I oversee former threads 
discussing this topic?

thanks

Vincent David
