这两个示例程序无需任何更改即可在 Linux 或 FreeBSD 系统上运行。对于其他操作系统，需要进行微小的更改，主要是文件路径。这些示例旨在为您提供足够的详细信息以帮助您理解问题，而不会出现实际应用程序所必需的混乱情况。第一个例子非常简单。第二个示例更高级一些，带有一些错误检查。第一个后面是用于编译程序的命令行条目。第二个后跟一个 GNUmake 文件，可用于编译。

示例 1

test1_libmysqld.c

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdarg.h>
#include "mysql.h"

MYSQL *mysql;
MYSQL_RES *results;
MYSQL_ROW record;

static char *server_options[] = \
       { "mysql_test", "--defaults-file=my.cnf", NULL };
int num_elements = (sizeof(server_options) / sizeof(char *)) - 1;

static char *server_groups[] = { "libmysqld_server",
                                 "libmysqld_client", NULL };

int main(void)
{
   mysql_library_init(num_elements, server_options, server_groups);
   mysql = mysql_init(NULL);
   mysql_options(mysql, MYSQL_READ_DEFAULT_GROUP, "libmysqld_client");
   mysql_options(mysql, MYSQL_OPT_USE_EMBEDDED_CONNECTION, NULL);

   mysql_real_connect(mysql, NULL,NULL,NULL, "database1", 0,NULL,0);

   mysql_query(mysql, "SELECT column1, column2 FROM table1");

   results = mysql_store_result(mysql);

   while((record = mysql_fetch_row(results))) {
      printf("%s - %s \n", record[0], record[1]);
   }

   mysql_free_result(results);
   mysql_close(mysql);
   mysql_library_end();

   return 0;
}

下面是编译上述程序的命令行：

gcc test1_libmysqld.c -o test1_libmysqld \
 `/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config --include --libmysqld-libs`

示例 2

test2_libmysqld 要尝试该示例，请在与 MySQL 源目录相同的级别 创建一个目录。test2_libmysqld.c将源代码和 目录保存在目录中，然后从 GNUmakefile目录中运行 GNU 。 maketest2_libmysqld
