TDBC and - its drivers are available from a Fossil version control repository - at http://tdbc.tcl.tk/ - -RCS: @(#) $Id: $ - -1. Introduction - -This directory contains the source code, documentation, and test -scripts for the MySQL driver for Tcl Database Connectivity. This -module, plus TDBC itself, allow you to access MySQL databases using a -standard application programming interface (API) from a Tcl script. -This module is also available from http://tdbc.tcl.tk along with the -source code of TDBC itself. A bug database and Wiki are available at -the same location. - -Tdbc::mysql is a freely-available open source package. You can do -virtually anything you like with it, such as modifying it, -redistributing it, and selling it either in whole or in part. See the -file "license.terms" for complete information. - -2. Compilation and Installation - -This module follows the general configuration and installation -rules described in the README file for tdbc. In addition to the -options described there, the 'configure' script for tdbcmysql -accepts the following two options: - - --with-mysql-includedir=PATH - - Specifies PATH as the path to the directory that contains - 'mysql.h' and related header files. - - --with-mysql-libdir=PATH - - Specifies PATH as the path to the directory that contains - the MySQL link libraries. - -Building on Windows is tested only with msys/mingw, and only with -the version of MySQL present in XAMPP (https://sourceforge.net/projects/xampp) -You need the 'xampp-win32-devel' package as well as the 'xampp-win32' -package. - -In order to build the code under msys/mingw, you need to rebuild the -import library for use by mingw. (This also requires the 'reimp' -utility from mingw-utils.) The recipe for this step is: - - reimp -d drive:/path/to/xampp/lib/mysql/libmysql.lib - dlltool -k -d libmysql.def -l libmysql.a - cp libmysql.a drive:/path/to/mingw/lib - -It is also convenient to make sure that the MySQL headers are available -without the --with option: - - cp -r drive:/path/to/xampp/include/mysql/* drive:/path/to/mingw/include/ - -Then an ordinary 'configure' and 'make' should function to build the -load module. - -NOTE THAT ON WINDOWS, THE 'libmysql.dll' LIBRARY MUST BE ON THE PATH -AT RUNTIME. Probably the easiest way to ensure this happens is to -put it either in the Windows 'system32' directory or the 'bin' -directory of your Tcl distribution. - -3. Documentation - -The 'doc' subdirectory in this release contains a set of reference -manual entries for tdbc::mysql. Files with an extension '.n' are for -Tcl classes and commands; files with an extension '.3' are for C -library functions. The file, 'doc/tdbcmysql.n' gives an overview, -listing the classes and functions - -4. See also - -More information about TDBC and its drivers are available in the -README file for TDBC itself; refer to that file for compilation and -installation instructions, and support information. |
