Never worked with Solaris much in C, but I have in Linux.
Make sure that all the stuff in mysql/libs/mysql is somewhere in your
library path (on linux you have to either copy the files to a new
location or edit /etc/ld.so.conf and rereun ldconfig), and that your
include files are in /usr/include/mysql (symlink 'em) and you can do this:
#include <mysql/mysql.h>
that should be sufficient. when you do your compiles, make sure you
include -lmysqlclient like so:
gcc -o myprogram myprogram -c -L/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql -lmysqlclient
