Thanks, I'll give it a shot. I've seen a mysql extension that a library wrapped around, and it looked messy, so I was trying to avoid that. This looks different though.

Hi Ty,
I'm no stranger to dumb questions, so here goes. Why not do one of two things? Use a different language, or maybe there's a generic C++ library that happens to also read MySQL.

Subject: searching for a good mysql/postgresql library for c++

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?
