The MySQL c api will let you do operations on the db server (inser, select, upgrade, delete) and get info about the db server (show column in, show tables, etc). It is not designed to do such things you need. On the other hand, you can perfectly write a set of functions to connect your i/o streams coming from the rs port and input it to the server using the mysql c api, but _YOU_ have to write the logic. We are building something similar but we are using java for such purpose and linux is our os; weird isn't it? =) We are using the rxtx.org java classes to conect to the serial port, then a set of simple clases to create strings out of the i/o streams coming from the port, then jdbc to insert or update data in our beloved mysql server.
