Question

I am connecting C to mysql and then creating a database .
My code is:

#include <mysql.h>
#include <my_global.h> 

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{MYSQL *conn;
conn = mysql_init(NULL);
if (conn == NULL) {
  printf("Error %u: %s\n", mysql_errno(conn), mysql_error(conn));
  exit(1);}
if (mysql_real_connect(conn, "localhost", "zetcode", "passwd", NULL, 0, NULL, 0) == NULL)
 {printf("Error %u: %s\n", mysql_errno(conn), mysql_error(conn));
  exit(1);}
if (mysql_query(conn, "create database testdb")) {
 printf("Error %u: %s\n", mysql_errno(conn), mysql_error(conn));
  exit(1);
  }
mysql_close(conn);}

But i don’t have the headers mysql.h and my_global.h
How can i get them??
Thanks

Once you have installed the Client….you should be able to just link them? Or at least add the include/libs to your compiler?
