Have a look at "Transaction Time Validity" in
http://www.osdbzine.net/issue6.pdf and http://www.osdbzine.net/issue7.pdf.

I'm sorry, you are way off here in what this actually does.
mysql_affected_rows is only going to tell you how many rows were
affected by the execution of the last statement made on your current
connection. It is not an interface to a magic genie maintaining watch
over the state of your entire database.
The only ways you might accomplish anything even remotely like what
you have in mind are:
have your watcher thread thread make a snapshot of the entire
db and run a diff on every cycle which would be ridiculously expensive
in terms of execution time not to mention locking up database access
pretty good.
OR
have the external updating process record a log of changes to
a particular table, then you monitor thread can scan that table for
new entries.

Can somebody please help!
There are two queries -
1. How can I detect from my code whether a table has been updated in the Database
manually (I am firing delete from testtable where SrNo>=9; on the Database
server) and not from the code itself. I am running this code -
conn = mysql_init(NULL);
/* Connect to database */
if (!mysql_real_connect(conn, server, user, password, database, 0,
NULL, 0)) {
fprintf(stderr, "%s\n", mysql_error(conn));
exit(1);
}
my_ulonglong affect_fields;
while(1)
{
affect_fields = mysql_affected_rows(conn);
if ((long) affect_fields >=1)
{
printf("%ld products updated\n\n", (long)
affect_fields);
}
}
2. And if the table is really updated/inserted/deleted for any record then how
to check which that record was.
Regards,
Gaurav.
