Access denied

[J S]

Hi:
I have setup mysql++ fine, setup the test db and everything seems to
be working. However, when I run ./simple1, I get the following error:

Database connection failed: Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost'
(using password: NO)

Even though I have set a password for the root user. I guess I am
wondering if and where you set the host, user, and password in any of
the mysql++ configure files. I am new to C++ and definately new to
mysql++. I appreciate any help with this matter.
