Hi all,
first, in case it is relevant, some info about my setup: I'm running
Debian unstable and corresponding MySQL v5.0 and mysqlpp v3.0 packages.
I have been happily connecting to my database without explicitly
specifying anything other than the database name:
eg.
mysqlpp::Connection c(false);
const char* db = "bm";
const char* server = 0;
const char* user = 0;
const char* password = 0;
unsigned int port = 0;
c.connect( db, server, user, password, port );
My understanding is that the server is defaulting to localhost, the user
name is coming for my login username, password from my ~/.my.cnf and the
default port 3306 is assumed.
However now I want to use mysql procedures in my queries so I added
c.set_option(new mysqlpp::MultiResultsOption( true ) );
before tue c.connect() call. However, after doing this I found
that I am unable to connect to the database unless I explicitly define
all of server, user, password (and maybe port).
I really would prefer to have these parameters automagically determined
as was the happening before I introduced MultiResultsOption.
I've googled and been able to find nothing on this topic.
Does anyone know where I should look to find out how to solve this
problem? Of better yet, does anyone already know a solution?
TIA,
Nick.
