Hi Tom, Tom Petersen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> was heard to say:

Is there something missing in the libdbi files in connection > with this? It is very well possible that the mysql driver code (or all drivers) requires some porting to work with MinGW. But as I said before, I don't use that system and I can't be of much help here. Let's hope that Ashish, our MinGW expert, can eventually look into this. > > How is this handled in the cygwin build of libdbi? > No porting was required to compile libdbi and the mysql driver on Cygwin, as this system nicely emulates a Unix-style environment. There is only some extra work required to build the drivers as DLLs which explains the extra Makefiles. But this is not related to your problem. regards, Markus -- Markus Hoenicka [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Spam-protected email: replace the quadrupeds with "mhoenicka") http://www.mhoenicka.de ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: Power Architecture Resource Center: Free content, downloads, discussions, and more. http://solutions.newsforge.com/ibmarch.tmpl _______________________________________________ libdbi-users mailing list libdbi-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/libdbi-users
