Using MySQL in C# (libraries)
Hello,
I'm new to using Microsoft .NET and C#.
I tried to connect to a MySql database (version 5) via MySQL Connector/NET
Here is my code snippet:
public void MYSQL_Connect()
{
MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlConnection conn;
string myConnectionString;
myConnectionString = "server=127.0.0.1;uid=root;" +
"pwd=12345;database=test;";
try
{
conn = new MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlConnection();
conn.ConnectionString = myConnectionString;
conn.Open();
}
catch (MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlException ex)
{
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);
}
} // MYSQL_Connect
I got the error message:
"The type or namespace name 'MySql' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)"
Then I inserted the following line at the beginning:
using MySql::Data;
Now the compiler says:
"Alias 'MySql' not found"
How can I tell the C# compiler to know the MySQL libraries?
Hope someone can help me and give some useful hints.
Thanks in advance.
