Hi,
Take a look in mysql.h.
#ifdef USE_OLD_FUNCTIONS
MYSQL * STDCALL mysql_connect(MYSQL *mysql, const char *host,
const char *user, const char *passwd);
int STDCALL mysql_create_db(MYSQL *mysql, const char *DB);
int STDCALL mysql_drop_db(MYSQL *mysql, const char *DB);
#define mysql_reload(mysql) mysql_refresh((mysql),REFRESH_GRANT)
#endif
#define HAVE_MYSQL_REAL_CONNECT
mysql_connect it's already "history".
Try to use mysql_real_connect()
Regards,
Gelu
