Hi Michael,
The mysql++ is not a managed C++ library its meant to
be built for different OS platforms. The replacement
of * with ^ for pointers is typical for managed C++.
I have built a project using managed C++ and simply
built the library and used the mysql++ library
makefile as is i.e linked in the library. You may get
warnings but should not see errors. Do not attempt to
build the mysql++ library as as CLR project.
Thanks,
Garyc
