Building the MySQL plugin

[jelemans]

Hello,

Does anyone have instructions for building the mysql plugin? I have QT source 4.8.1 and MySQL 5.5.

Older instructions in this forum result in many errors for undefined references such as

"mysql_query@8" in qsql_mysql.cpp

fwiw; I installed mysql in a path with no spaces in any names.

Also, building the complete source package with mysql turned simply halts at the mysql plugin due to missing includes.
Maybe instructions for how to build the complete QT and how to specify the mysql paths would be helpful.

Thank you.
