If you simply assign one to the other, it should work, though it won't  
work reliably with BLOB data, as it uses a C string pointer.  To get a  
copy that can cope with embedded null characters, this should work:

	mysqlpp::String s1 = ... stuff
	std::string s2(s1.data(), s1.length());

However, I suspect your problem isn't actually in the string copy.  I  
think something else is going on.  Please post your code and the  
compiler error messages so we can diagnose it.
