Hello again :-)
In my everlasting search for knowledge, I have come to the issue of
databases. I am using MySQL on a FreeBSD box.
After some issues with include paths and libraries, I managed to get in
contact with the database and retrieve some records so the program and
database works. Time to combine with some of the other stuff I have learned:
When connecting to the database, I used the following:
if(!mysql_real_connect(connect,SERVER,USER,PASSWORD,DATABASE,0,NULL,0)){
cout << "Oops: " << mysql_error(connect) << endl;
return 1;
}
This works as it should and tells me if the connection fails (e.g. wrong
password).
But if I do this instead:
try{
mysql_real_connect(connect,SERVER,USER,PASSWORD,DATABASE,0,NULL,0);
}catch(...){
cout << "Oops: " << mysql_error(connect) << endl;
return 1;
}
I get the following error: Segmentation fault (core dumped) (i.e. not
the mysql error as expected).
What am I doing wrong?
Best regards
Stefan
Oh, and I still wonder why #include <mysql/mysql.h> doesn't work, but I
have to use the -Ipath-to-mysql.h option?
