Hi folks, I just started playing around with libmysqld and I would like to have some clarification concerning making connections to remote server.
My first tries are pretty simple so far. I just linked some of my old lil code against libmysqld which worked (from the view compiling) immediately and without any problems. But now I got the problem that the applications are not able to connect to a remote server anymore and I wonder if this is due to some mistake in my code or if this is not possible with libmysqld at all. Just to make it clear. I am pretty aware that it is not possible to connect TO my embedded server and I am perfectly satisfied with that as stated in the manual: You can't connect to the embedded server from an outside process with sockets or TCP/IP. But what is with the other direction? I can think about a lot of examples which have a 'local' embedded server but still need the possibilty to connect to a remote MySql server as well. Is this possible with libmysqld or do I have to play around until I find out how to link against libmysql and mysqlclient to the same time (which I would find ... errr ... not that beautiful, cause it would make me do a lot of changes in my existing code I guess, and I am lazy by nature ;-) ) Actually I tried the library with the Windowssources (4.02) in case this is from some importance to answer my question. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
