Is anyone using the new prepared statements C API in MySQL 4.1.3 with success? I see a number of people having issues - I'd like to hear about someone (anyone) actually using them successfully (platforms, compilers, issues, un-documented/mis-documented usage, etc.). I haven't been able to get it working (Sparc Solaris 9, 32 bit, binary-max 4.1.3beta).
For me, it's one of the compelling reasons to upgrade, but I have yet to see it work, and given 4.1 is already to beta, I'm surprised by how problematic it seems to be at this point. If you've had success, please share. Thx, R
