Re: Write a C program to add a user to MySQL. The user should be permitted to only "INSERT" into the given database.

#include <mysql.h>
#include <stdio.h>

main() {
MYSQL *conn;
MYSQL_RES *res;
MYSQL_ROW row;

char *server = "localhost";
char *user = "root";
char *password = "PASSWORD"; /* set me first */
char *database = "mysql";

conn = mysql_init(NULL);

/* Connect to database */
if (!mysql_real_connect(conn, server,
user, password, database, 0, NULL, 0)) {
fprintf(stderr, "%s\n", mysql_error(conn));
exit(1);
}

/* send SQL query */
if (mysql_query(conn, "show tables")) {
fprintf(stderr, "%s\n", mysql_error(conn));
exit(1);
}

res = mysql_use_result(conn);

/* output table name */
printf("MySQL Tables in mysql database:\n");
while ((row = mysql_fetch_row(res)) != NULL)
printf("%s \n", row[0]);

/* close connection */
mysql_free_result(res);
mysql_close(conn);
}
