All,

I am having difficulty compiling a piece of software.  If I try compiling
with the following:

gcc dnd.cpp -o dnd3 -L /usr/local/lib/mysql -lmysqlclient

as suggested in "Core MySQL by Leon Atkinson" on page 436, I get the
error:

/usr/bin/ld:  cannot find -lmysqlclient
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

As an experiment I tried

g++ dnd.cpp -o dnd3

and my compiler belched up the following:

/tmp/cco2LOOc.o: In function "mon_list(void):
/tmp/cco2LOOc.o(.text+0x872): undefined reference to 'mysql_init'
/tmp/cco2LOOc.o(.text+0x89e): undefined reference to 'mysql_real_connect'
/tmp/cco2LOOc.o(.text+0x8b2): undefined reference to 'mysql_error'

etc.

I think it lists every mysql command I used.  I have copied the code
almost directly out of the book (changing server name, user name, and
table name).  

I am running Red Hat 7.1 and I have checked that the header files are
there.  Any suggestions?

Thank you,
Rick
