Dear MySQL users, MySQL Connector/C++ 2.0.3 is the next development milestone of the MySQL Connector/C++ 2.0 series, and the first public release. Apart from covering more X DevAPI features, it adds a new, plain C API, called XAPI, that offers functionality similar to X DevAPI to applications written in plain C. Thus, not only can MySQL Connector/C++ be used to write C++ applications, as before. Now, using the XAPI, MySQL Connector/C++ can be used to write plain C applications to access MySQL Database implementing a document store as well as execute traditional plain SQL statements. For more information about XAPI, refer to the documentation at http://dev.mysql.com/doc/dev/connector-cpp/xapi_ref.html.
To learn more about how to write applications using the X DevAPI, see X DevAPI User Guide (http://dev.mysql.com/doc/x-devapi-userguide/en/). For more information about how to use Connector/C++ 2.0 and how the X DevAPI is implemented in it, see http://dev.mysql.com/doc/dev/connector-cpp/. Note The X DevAPI requires at least MySQL Server version 5.7.12 or higher with the X Plugin enabled. For general documentation about how to get started using MySQL as a document store, see Using MySQL as a Document Store (http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/document-store.html).
