mysql_real_connect MYSQL *mysql, const char *host, const char *user, const char *passwd, const char *db, unsigned int port, const char *unix_socket, unsigned int client_flag)
unix_socket: The seventh parameter is the Unix socket number. We will pass NULL to indicate that we don't require a special Unix socket. this is what the documentation says. i am on a win machine and i am using VC++ to connect to the mysql on my linux box. what should i give as my unix_socket value? each time i try to connect mysql_real_connect fails and says "Error connecting to 192.168.5.10" but, if i use the API, that has also been included with the mysql++, i can connect properly. arvind _______________________________________________ linux-india-help mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-india-help
