[Qt-interest] mySQL plugin

[mmiacca]

First you need download the c connector for mysql, the recent is 
"mysql-connector-c-6.0.2-win32", install it and observe the destination 
folder.

After install i:
a) copy the header folder from the destination of the instalation to 
c:\qt\qtsdk-2009.04\qt\src\plugins\sqldrivers\mysql.
b) copy libmysql.lib from the destination of the instalation to 
c:\qt\qtsdk-2009.04\qt\src\plugins\sqldrivers\mysql.

Open a qt command prompt and:
a) qmake "INCLUDEPATH+=.\\" "LIBS+=.\\libmysql.lib" mysql.pro
b) nmake or mingw32-make (mingw32-make is installed with open source of qt)
c) nmake install or mingw32-make install (this copy the dll to the 
c:\qt\qtsdk-2009.04\qt\plugins\sqldrivers
d)You get qsqlmysql4.dll

For the release:
a) qmake "INCLUDEPATH+=.\\" "LIBS+=.\\libmysql.lib" mysql.pro
b) nmake or mingw32-make release (mingw32-make is installed with open 
source of qt)
c) nmake install or mingw32-make install (this copy the dll to the 
c:\qt\qtsdk-2009.04\qt\plugins\sqldrivers
d)You get qsqlmysql4d.dll

d) REMEMBER, if your proyect is builded in debug mode the mysql dll must 
be build in debug mode, if your proyect is builded in release mode the 
mysql dll must be in release mode.

hope this help
