I am afraid that I don't know. Does GCC run on this platform? > Also, is there a C (not C++) API available? The C API is the base API :) Cheers!

Will any ANSI compiler be sufficient? Hello Tom, Often, if GCC operates on the platform, then the various bits of MySQL software can work as well. In theory, any ANSI compliant C++ compiler will do the trick, however this has not always proved to be the case in the past. The code is optimized for GCC. > Also, since the C API is the base API for C++ API, does that mean this > product's API's are callable from (and may be linked into)a C program? I am not sure that someone has tried. Usually if they are using C, then they use the C API.

We seem to assume that everyone knows about the C API. :) Visit http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/C.html to find out more about the C API. > Thanks in advance for all your help. Glad to help!
