How to create the plugin of MYSQL for Qt

[euclidQt]

Does that work for OS X 10.9

[SGaist]

Hi both,

Like written in the post, these instructions are for Windows. Linux and OS X are far less problematic. On OS X install mysql through e.g. macports with sudo port install mysql56 and on Linux, install the mysql dev packages.

For the rest just follow Qt's Sql Driver documentation

[kshots]

I recently ran into an issue with mysql (mariadb) in a linux environment - apparently, the 5.3.1 release ties to an older version of mysql that my system no longer supports (apparently, qt-5.3.1-release wants version .16, while my system uses .18). If you have this problem, an ldd of /path/to/qt5/plugins/sqldrivers/libqsqlmysql.so should show that it can't find your mysql libs. To fix this, go into the source directory at qtbase/src/plugins/sqldrivers/mysql, run qmake (specifically for 5.3.1, not the system qmake), and then make install.

Even today Qt doesn't have a MySql proper plugin delivered with? any way.. thanks for this great job... that save me a lot of trouble I wish to do something similar with HeidiSql and this was a good start point.. Thanks again

You're all welcome :), for the guys who are asking for linux or Os X, but i don't know :(, try to fetch the doc.

Hello, I'm new to QT and I have installed QT from this installer on Windows 7 64bit:
qt-opensource-windows-x86-1.6.0-5-online.exe

but I don't see the src folder and I don't have a QT Sdk. How can I install the sdk? thanks.

[SGaist]

Hi and welcome to devnet,

You need to first install the sources. Use the installer for that

[danny36]

OK now I have installed the sources (maybe) and I have a folder called Src, this is my path: C:\Qt\5.3\Src.

I try to follow the tutorial but in my situation when prompt "reimp libmysql.dll" I receive this message:

"reimp: libmysql.dll: invalid or corrupt import library"

but if prompt "reimp libmysql.lib" seems to work.

[danny36]

now I'm arrived to step 5 but I think I have some problem, this is the ouput after lunch the command:

configure.exe -debug-and-release -platform win32-g++ -qt-sql-mysql -l mysql -I C:\mysql\include -L C:\mysql\lib

Creating qmake...
mingw32-make: Nothing to be done for 'first'.

The build will most likely fail.

[SGaist]

Either install the Direct X SDK or pass -opengl desktop to configure

[danny36]

I'm sorry and frustrated but
but unfortunately for me it is the first time with C++ and QT.
I lunch configure:

configure.exe -opengl desktop

and the result is:

Just one question, do you only need to build the MySQL plugin ? If so, there's no need to rebuild Qt completely

[danny36]

This is the first time for me with C++ and QT so for me it's all new and I do not know what are the requirements needed to achieve my goal.
I want to make a windows application that keep some signal from a RFID antenna attached to notebook from serial and store data in a mysql database.
To start I want only to connect to mysql database and read a table data.

So I guess I need only mysql plugin.

[SGaist]

Then just compile the MySQL plugin like described in the documentation, no need to rebuild everything.

What does that message have to do with the current question ?

[masum]

what about other platform?

[SGaist]

Can you be more specific ?

Hi all,

after trying to build mysql plugin now I cannot to compile a simple hello world project, the error is:

That would of been useful about 2 months ago, but thanks for posting it
