Simplest build of QMYSQL3

Question

What is simplest way to build the QMYSQL3 driver with the full 4.6 SDK (2009.05) installed? Does the resulting DLL require a manual copy in order for the SDK to use it?

Answer 1

If you have not installed mysql driver at

$QTDIR/plugins/src/sqldriver/mysql

than install it with

qmake -o Makefile INCLUDEPATH+="mysql header files path" LIBS+="mysql library path -L lmysqlclient" mysql.pro
make

If you can't able to load the driver, than reconfigure QT with

./configure -qt-sql mysql 

and specify header file path and library path with -I and -L option.
