Re: C API and threads

[Chris Slominski]

I found a MySQL file call thread_test.c in my browsing for an answer to my post. Nothing appears in the file that indicates I have problem with what I have done with my code, but there are two things in thread_test.c that I can't identify. First there is a "#include <global.h>" that I cannot locate on my system. I can't get the mysql example to compile without it. Does anybody know what this is? Also, the thread_test.c has conditional compilation on the definition of a symbol named "THREAD". The example program just aborts if this symbol is not defined. I found no references to this symbol in the mysql online documentation, where thread support is being discussed. Do clients using the C API need to create this definition?
