Hi Forum,

We have Active State Perl 5.8.8, and now we are trying to connect to
MySQl Database via SolidDB Engine, 

For this we downloaded the  DBD::mysql  from CPAN, after downloading it
we did execute the Makefile.PL which threw error as mentioned below in
red

 

C:\temp\DBD-mysql-4.005>perl Makefile.PL

Failed to determine directory of mysql.h. Use

 

  perl Makefile.PL --cflags=-I<dir>

 

to set this directory. For details see the INSTALL.html file,

section "C Compiler flags" or type

 

  perl Makefile.PL -help

 

Can you please help us with the same, so that we can successfully
connect to mysql using perl?

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Regards,
