Re: Still having pointer problems with mysqlpp examples.

[Gary Anderson]

I used the project files for resetdb and dbinfo contained in the example 
folder as the base for VS2005 to work from.  Of course, VS2005 had to 
update everything to meet its new standard.  I built the projects 
individually, and didn't use the overall examples.dsw file.  I went 
through the configuration as specified in the readme.vs file and all of 
the library and include file pointers are set to the correct places.  
I'm also having a problem with null string pointers in dbinfo.
