Dear MySQL users,
MySQL Connector/C 6.1.1, a new version of the C API for client/server
communication for the MySQL database management system, has been
released.
This version of Connector/C provides full support for MySQL 5.6
protocol. Connector/C is compatible with the client libraries
(libmysql). It includes all the features in the MySQL client library
shipped with MySQL servers 5.6 as well as prior versions. You can
recompile existing code linked with Connector/C 6.1.0 without any code
changes.
You can use Connector/C to run and build client applications which
communicate with MySQL server versions from 4.1 to 5.6 without a need
to do a complete server installation.
The release is now available in source and binary form for a number
of platforms from our download pages at
http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/c/
For information on installing, please see the documentation at
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/connector-c/en/connector-c-installation.html
Enjoy!
Bjorn Munch,
The MySQL build team at Oracle
