C++ Connector Cmake problems

[Bert Dewaele]

Hi, I want to connect to my MySQL database in my C++ program. I downloaded the C++ connector source and generic linux tar (x64):

mysql-connector-c++-1.1.3-linux-glibc2.3-x86-64bit.tar.gz
mysql-connector-c++-1.1.3.tar.gz

I untarred the source and ran cmake and got these issues:
CMake Warning (dev) in CMakeLists.txt:
A logical block opening on the line

/home/bert/Downloads/mysql-connector-c++-1.1.3/CMakeLists.txt:39 (if)

closes on the line

/home/bert/Downloads/mysql-connector-c++-1.1.3/CMakeLists.txt:41 (endif)

with mis-matching arguments.
This warning is for project developers. Use -Wno-dev to suppress it.

I can confirm i installed mysql server and client.
sudo apt-get install mysql-server mysql-client


What can I do to fix this? Thanks
