Yes. Are some changes between ver 3.x and 4.x.If i understand well i
think you try to find where this changes are declared/prototype?...on
h files.
  


We should not need to read the source files to use the API.

Are there any changes affecting the applications that use the API?

Has the documentation changed?

Precisely what I was after. Thanks Stephen.


Between 3.0 and 4.x, no, there are no significant changes other than bug 
fixes, and licensing. The client API for 3.x is LGPL, for 4.x and newer 
it is GPL.

The documentation for the C-API is at http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/C.html

Of course there are more features in 4.x compared to 3.x at the SQL and 
server config level, but that doesn't affect the C-API. You can usually 
always use an older version of any of the APIs to talk to a newer 
server, too.

The changelog is at http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/News.html (pretty much 
where it always has been).

	-Mark
