Qy MySql Connector Windows

[WBest]

Is there a simple, straight forward, step by step process of what to download, and etc to build the driver?

Is there an interface projct that uses the MySql 8 C++ Connector? Or do I have to the use the 6.1 C Connector?

Can you build it via the QtCreator interface?

It shouldn't be this difficult to get a database driver.

Thanks
WB

There is also a slightly updated version of the instructions at https://doc-snapshots.qt.io/qt5-5.15/sql-driver.html#how-to-build-the-qmysql-plugin-on-windows

Either one can be used -- the interface has been unchanged for years. You can even use the MariaDB C connector.

Yes.
