Hai,
I'm trying to use mysql with Eclipse IDE.
I've installed mysql and included the header file in my program.

#include <my_global.h>
#include <mysql.h>

But when I compiled it, it is giving these errors.....

: undefined reference to `mysql_init'
: undefined reference to `mysql_real_connect'
: undefined reference to `mysql_error'
: undefined reference to `mysql_query'
: undefined reference to `mysql_error'
: undefined reference to `mysql_use_result'
: undefined reference to `mysql_fetch_row'
: undefined reference to `mysql_free_result'
: undefined reference to `mysql_close'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

When I do Ctrl+Click on any of these functions, the editor correctly opens the header file.
Can I know where to add the libraries, include paths and linker flags of mysql in eclipse.

I'm using redhat enterprise linux 6.1 and Eclipse Juno

Thank you

Hai,
I've given it like this.
1)Under properties->C/C++ Build->Settings->GCC Compiler->Includes
added var/lib/mysql, /usr/lib64/mysql and /usr/include/mysql
2)Under properties->C/C++ Build->Settings->GCC Compiler->Miscellaneous
-c -fmessage-length=0 $(mysql_config --cflags)
3)Under properties->C/C++ Build->Settings->GCC Linker->Libraries->Libraries(-I)
$(mysql_config --libs)
4)3)Under properties->C/C++ Build->Settings->GCC Linker->Libraries->Library search path(-L)
added /usr/include, var/lib/mysql, /usr/lib64/mysql and /usr/include/mysql
5)Under properties->C/C++ Build->Settings->GCC Linker->Miscellaneous
-pthread -lm -lrt

But, I'm still getting error:

gcc: argument to '-l' is missing

I think I'm missing something in the linker.

Thank you

Usage of mysql_config in the command line options is not supported by Eclipse CDT. There is a plugin for pkg-config support.
http://code.google.com/p/pkg-config-support-for-eclipse-cdt/
Perhaps you can this one (or ask the author to help you).

Hai,
Thanks for your reply.
I've added pkg-config, but I didn't see anything for mysql there.
using terminal, I can compile and link C file as

gcc -o exe $(mysql_config --cflags) main.c $(mysql_config --libs)

But, in eclipse I am not able to link it. I might be doing something wrong.

Thanks
