Hi all,

I had a search for these on google but couldn't find
anything simple -- so I did a version myself which checks
for libdl, libdbi and that the mysql driver can be loaded
at runtime (which is the tricky one). Perhaps this would be 
useful to others

AC_CHECK_LIB(dl,dlopen,,echo "Dynamic loading library not found!",)
AC_CHECK_LIB(dbi,dbi_initialize,,echo "DBI library not found!",)
AC_MSG_CHECKING([for libdbi mysql driver (dynamic load)])
AC_RUN_IFELSE(
   [AC_LANG_PROGRAM(,[[dbi_initialize(0);dbi_conn_new("mysql");]])],
   [AC_MSG_RESULT([yes])],
   [AC_MSG_FAILURE([failed - libdbd not insatlled?])])

Cheers & thanks for a great library!

Jim
