Steve,

What compiler have you used? For the server, we don't use Cygwin for our official binaries, so I'm wondering if there are any issues in using Cygwin vs. MSVC++ (or whatever) to compile DBD::mysql.

thanks!

Patrick

Hi Folks



Thanks so much for your patch! I do need to check out windows
issues. I didn't realise that windows doesn't have LONG LONG. If
possible, I'd like to pick your brain about getting a setup to
compile on windows. I'll talk to the dev team about how to deal



What exactly does it take to compile DBD::mysql under Windows?

I run Windows (usually).

Perl, MySQL and a C compiler.

I usually hack out the stuff in the Makefile.PL that refers to
mysql_config (which doesn't exist on Win32) and then just run:

        perl Makefile.PL --cflags=-IC:/mysql/include
--libs=C:/mysql/lib/mysqlclient.lib --testuser=root

(Leaving the mysql_config stuff in doesn't hurt, other than to spew out
half a dozen errors about it not being recognized as an "internal or
external command, operable program or batch file".)
