Ryan,
Ok. I see that its now an entry in the cmake-gui. What I filled in the file
with the directory where mysql-connector-c++ is installed but I could not
figure out why it failed to find it. The headers are found in "C:\Program
Files\MySQL\MySQL Connector C++ 1.0.5\include\cppconn" so I changed the
find_path for the include to be:
find_path(MYSQLCONNECTORCPP_INCLUDE_DIR
NAMES
mysql_connection.h
PATHS
"cppconn"
HINTS
${MYSQLCONNECTORCPP_ROOT_DIR}
PATH_SUFFIXES
include)
Where I think I am getting confused is how this command is expanded. In
particular I would like to follow what is doing by running this module in some
sort of debug mode. That is print out the paths it looked into to find the
target header.
Stephen
