Dear all, I have previously used this dabo solution with success, but I now run into the following problem. I always managed to use sqlite until now. But now I want to communicate with a Mysql database. This works fine in ubuntu linux, but it gives me a headache under windows (and please don't use the --stick to linux-- sentence, I am aware of that). Dabo installs fine (from source; not from binaries) but the third party python-mysql seems very messy. Since the developer explicitly states that he "doesn't do windows", I was hoping to get some advice over here.
First of all I tried various installs, in different python versions, including binaries eggs and directly from source. None of them worked as for now. As for now I stick to trying to compile from source. Now this library seems to contain some C-code, which includes mysql.h (among some other stuff). Now this include confuses me for several reasons: Can someone maybe answer the following questions? -Does this mean that I need a working mysql version myself? -Does this mean that the code generated depends on the dll of my local mysql version? -Does it mean that I need a working mysql on any computer that will try to use my dabo code? Or even more severe (I did not read the code thoroughly -- but maybe someone else did so) -Does the C-code approaches the server internally --meaning that you actually can only access a database locally? Furthermore I also have some practical questions concerning this issue. -Probably a certain mysql dll and a couple of headers files will deal with the issue. Where can I find them? -Has anyone tried to compile this package from source on a windows machine and is willing to share his experience? If you find this email is inappropriate concerning this is a list on dabo-users, then I apologize in advance. I would appreciate some help however. Best regards, Freagell. _________________________________________________________________ Hebben jij en je vrienden leuke foto's van jullie feestje?
