RE: Building MySQL 5.0.18 with multithreaded DLL run-time...

Hi,
    the issue is that when trying to link against MySQL original client
library 5.0.18 we get unresolved reference to _dosmaperr call. We have
found that a different run-time is being used to build it.
In trying to build MySQL libmysql.lib & dll libs from sources using /MD
we run into more unresolved symbols.

Another issue is that even for debug builds of our software stack we
still use on windows only the multi-threaded DLL non-debug version but
include debug information only of our SW as we don't need to debug C/C++
run-time libs :-)
MySQL on the other hand uses debug version of the C/C++ run-time for its
debug builds.

We try to find out a way to use 5.0.18 client libs without link error
mentioned above. So far we only see the way of providing a hack using a
dummy _dosmaperr() call in order to avoid it. Of course if there is way
to avoid hacking MySQL sources we follow it.

Cheers

            Radovan

Mixing run-times leads to clear crash sooner-or-later so we would like to know if /MD based MySQL build can be achieved. We've tried to do it ourselves but we're running into link problems when building libmysql.dll and mysql client programs.
