Hello list For some strange reason `mysql_config --...` does not work. If try something like
gcc -o progname `mysql_config --cflags` progname.c `mysql_config --libs` (NOTE: "/usr/local/mysql/bin" is in the PATH var, mysql_config works when invoked) the compiler does not find the header files and the libraries... if I execute the command by hand and paste the output to the gcc/g++ command line it works, but not with the quotes `mysql...` I can't run by hand mysql_config and paste the output to the gcc statement since it will be invoked from a Makefile, and don't want to paste the output directly into the Makefile since linked libs could vary from one version of mysql to another... what can I do? generated Makefile should work with any linux system without changes I need to have a distribution Makefile working for ANY possible version of mysql and mysql_config `quoted` does not give the compiler the right parameters (don't know why). Is there some way to let the system (linux x86) find the libraries (.a) *without moving* them to a standard lib path? /etc/ld.so.conf does not work since libraries are static, not shared... Am using qmake (Qt) to generate the Makefile and need to make something like ------------------------------------- TEMPLATE = app TARGET = myapp SOURCES = app.cpp HEADERS = app.h INCLUDEPATH += `mysql_config --cflags` CONFIG += qt thread warn_on release LIBS += `mysql_config --libs` lpthread -ldl -lvoodoo2 ------------------------------------- I've created a library that manages all mysql stuff I need, so can't use mysql stuff included with Qt 'cos should change all my sources from my applications already working... necesarily have to use my lib and generate the right makefiles with qmake...
