How to compile c program using macintosh gcc

[Joshua Demori]

I have a sample code I am trying to compile using gcc 4.0.0 on my Macintosh. How would I compile this. I have tried various attempts yet I have not succeded. Please help. Thank you.




#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include "my_sys.h"
#include "mysql.h"

static char *opt_host_name = NULL; // SERVER HOST (DEFAULT=LOCALHOST)
static char *opt_user_name = NULL; // USERNAME (DEFAULT=LOGIN NAME)
static char *opt_password = NULL; // PASSWORD (DEFAULT=NONE)
static unsigned int opt_port_num = 0; // PORT NUMBER (USE BUILT-IN VALUE)
static char *opt_socket_name = NULL; // SOCKET NAME (USE BUILT-IN VALUE)
static char *opt_db_name = NULL; // DATABASE NAME (DEFAULT=NONE)
static unsigned int opt_flags = 0; // CONNECTION FLAGS (NONE)


static MYSQL *conn; // POINTER TO CONNECTION HANDLER


int main( int argc, char *argv[] )
{
//--------------------------------------//
// INIT CONNECTION HANDLER
conn = mysql_init(NULL);
if( conn == NULL )
{
fprintf( stderr, "mysql_init() failed (probably out of memory)\n");
exit(1);
}


//--------------------------------------//
// CONNECT TO SERVER
if( mysql_real_connect( conn, opt_host_name, opt_user_name, opt_password, opt_db_name, opt_port_num, opt_socket_name, opt_flags) == NULL)
{
fprintf( stderr, "mysql_real_connect() failed\n");
mysql_close( conn );
}


//--------------------------------------//
// DISCONNECT FORM SERVER
mysql_close(conn);
exit(0);

}
