No problem. You are right in that the contents of the
files are what shaped my first inquiry, and it did
seem like a version slip between the various files
would be the most likely reason for the incosistency,
but I thought it could be worth it to bring the matter
to the attention of the powers.. At least I now know
for sure that mysql++ was built fine.

I'm aware that I have quite a bit of catching up to
do:-), I just pasted the call from the help page
thinking that the brackets wouldnt do anything extra
in the cmd prompt. I knew that I would have to specify
all three since I'd need to specify something other
than the default user. And my connection failure
unfortunately persists irregardless of brackets:(
