I appreciate that this might be a bit off topic but any help would be
appreciated.

I need to port this program (attached) to the Linux environment.  This
is the first program I have attempted to port.  
Has anyone ever had to port from Windows to Linux\Unix, and if so how
did it go and what tools did you use.  I have downloaded cygwin for
windows, is this going to be any use?

The program itself simply uses the mysql++ API library to connect to the
server, run a query and then exit.
Parts of the program that might cause me problems are the headers I
think, because what is Linux for:

#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
#include "include\mysql++"

Please I really just need a starting point; someone to say you need this
tool you can download it at www.thistool.com. I am a complete newbie to
porting (though not to mysql nor working with linux or windows
programming)

Hopefully when I become proficient with this program I can move on to
bigger and greater projects.

***I would appreciate ANY input***

Sorry once again if this is off topic!!
