hello everybody.
Ive been working with perl and mysql for some time, but recently i had
to move over
to C and as such i wrote a small test program, just to get to know the
mysql C API.
Well, things didnt go as i thought. i kept getting linking problems
and in the end my test program was limited to the few lines bellow:
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
#include <stdlib.h>
#include "mysql.h"
#include <unistd.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main(){

  MYSQL *mysql;

mysql = mysql_init(NULL);
  if (mysql == NULL) {
    fprintf(stderr,"mysql_init() failed (foobar\n");
    exit(1);
  }
}
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

i compile this with:
gcc -I/usr/local/mysql/include/ -L/usr/local/mysql/lib/ program.c
-lmysqlclient

but i always get the error message:
/usr/local/mysql/lib//libmysqlclient.a(my_compress.o): In function
`my_uncompress':
my_compress.o(.text+0x97): undefined reference to `uncompress'
/usr/local/mysql/lib//libmysqlclient.a(my_compress.o): In function
`my_compress_alloc':
my_compress.o(.text+0x12b): undefined reference to `compress'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

doing an nm on libmysqlclient.a does reveal that the compress functions
are there,but
for some reason it wont work.

appriciate any/all help
