Hello all:
I've looked at soci and mysql++ and have found problems with both so far:
soci:
1) The "stable" release isn't actually stable, refuses to compile and you have to use the git version. 2) The documentation gives about 3 different methods for compiling soci, none of which actually work.
mysql++:
1) the "stable version," again refuses to compile. There was an error about strcmp, so I added #include <strings.h> to the top of the file and that solved it. Next was an error relevant to the actual library, so I gave up.

So, this leads me to a question; are there any good libraries out there for database access? I really liked the example soci showed, if only soci would work. What have you guys used in the past?
