Hi,

I've been using mysql++ for years with all the disgusing patches, I've
finaly found a good time to upgrade to 2.x. But I'm having a major problem
with exceptions. It works perfectly on my workstation, a linux box. But on
the server a Solaris(SPARC64) 10 exceptions are not caught even in the
supplied examples.

I'm using mysql 5.19 binary downloaded for mysql.com. Mysql++ is the only
lib I'm having problems with. Any ideas?

Example the multiquery example fails with
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'mysqlpp::ConnectionFailed'
what(): Access denied for user 'samuel'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
zsh: IOT instruction (core dumped) ./multiquery

I'm using gcc 3.4.5.

Thanks,

/Samuel

Exceptions seem to be a particular weakness of GCC on Solaris boxen.
Unfortunately, I don't have one here to play with, so all I'm going on
is anecdotal evidence I dig up on Google Groups and such.

If you're trying v2.0.x, install all the autotools and run the bootstrap
script to get fresh versions of all the scripts like libtool. If you're
trying v2.1.x, that shouldn't be necessary, but let me know if that's
the case.

Can you provide me with shell access to this Solaris box?

Thank you for taking the time, much appreciated!

I got it working with the bootstrap script. Now I know to try that in the
future.

It seems libtool(which has yet to prove it worth as more than something
only creating problems) left out alot of important options. (Just using
g++ -shared works perfectly)

One suggestion though is to include a check if the mysqlclient will be
statically or dynamically linked.

On Solaris you need to have all the code in a shared library compiled with
-fPIC (or atleast if some has been) for it to work. And since, for some
unknown to me and strange reason, mysql's binary tarballs only contain a
static client lib it fails. How ever moving -lmysqlclient(_r) to the
application link works.

Much apprecited.
