Avoiding MySQL dependency in Poco C++ Libraries build

[jthomas]

Hello,

I have been using Poco C++ Libraries v1.3.2 cross-built for ARM9 successfully. I am a very happy customer, and the price is right (thanks for your open source contribution).

Now I am upgrading to v1.3.3p1 so I can benefit from the general improvements, and the new support for controlling the thread stack size.

My first attempts to build are failing in include/Poco/Data/MySQL/Binder.h because mysql.h is not found. I am not using MySQL, so that is to be expected.

I am experimenting with trimming the Makefile to try to eliminate this build step, but I am curious what the recommended method is to exclude MySQL dependency from the build.

Thanks.

Jim

There is no price, but we do accept contributions (:biggrin:).

Code: Select all


./configure --omit=Data/MySQL

That works. Thanks very much.

If my project (and employment) survive the economic downturn, I will enthusiastically encourage my employer to demonstrate our appreciation. :-)
