The following packages have been added to the Cygwin distribution: *** mysql-5.5.20-1 *** mysqld-5.5.20-1 *** mysql-test-5.5.20-1 *** libmysqlclient18-5.5.20-1 *** libmysqlclient-devel-5.5.20-1 *** libmysqld0-5.5.20-1 *** libmysqld-devel-5.5.20-1 *** odbc-mysql-5.1.9-1 *** perl-DBD-mysql-4.020-1
MySQL Community Edition is a freely downloadable version of the world's most popular open source database that is supported by an active community of open source developers and enthusiasts. Please note that the server ('mysqld' package) should be considered *experimental*; for production use, I suggest using a native Windows version from dev.mysql.com. Input from experienced MySQL server administrators to improve this component is welcome. The client library and apps are stable, but when connecting to a native Windows MySQL server on the same machine, you MUST use 127.0.0.1 as the hostname; 'localhost' is reserved for connecting to the Cygwin mysqld via a UNIX socket. ODBC and Perl DBI drivers are also provided. -- Yaakov Cygwin/X CYGWIN-ANNOUNCE UNSUBSCRIBE INFO ================================ If you want to unsubscribe from the cygwin-announce mailing list, please use the automated form at: http://cygwin.com/lists.html#subscribe-unsubscribe If this does not work, then look at the "List-Unsubscribe: " tag in the email header of this message.
