Using mysql Connector/C++ in a dll problem

[Maurice Tadros]

Hello

I have successfully used Connector/C++ as a static library and dynamic library in a command line console.

I have a need to compile this as a dll. I can get it to compile but when the external program calls it the dll does not behave in the same manner. The program does run when I include all the libraries and with this code.

sql::Driver *driver;
sql::Connection *con;
sql::Statement *stmt;

// driver = get_driver_instance();


When I uncomment the driver code out it does not work. I have tried using Connector/C++ as a static and dynamic library. Also if I call an unrealted function it does not work if the driver code is uncommented.

Ie
char* test1(){
return “test1”;
}

void test2(){
sql::Driver *driver;
sql::Connection *con;
sql::Statement *stmt;

driver = get_driver_instance();

}

If I call test1 it will not work unless the driver code is commented out.

I am not sure how to debug this problem futher or what my nexts steps should be.

Please give me some suggests or if you need additional information I will be happy to provide it.

Cheers,
Maurice
