connect to mySQL

Hi,

How can I directlly connect to mySQL server from C# without an ODBC
drive? connecting through ODBC means I have to include mySQL
Connecter/ODBC in my distribution media.. I want to only distibute my
application..
Many Thanks,
Jassim Rahma

Jassim,

You can use a .net provider (e.g. System.Data.Sql Client - except for mySql).
There are a few .net providers that you can use for MySql. I have posted
the links to a couple of them below. Also you can use OleDb to access the
MySql Database too.

I hope this helps.

Don't use the ByteFX driver with MySql 4.1 (i.e. the latest stable
release). It won't work. Either use the mysql .net provider (which is
the old bytefx driver) provided by mysql themselves, or invest a few $
and go for the CoreLab MySql driver.

you need a native MySQL driver dll and use interop to call its functions.
for example libmysql4.dll

The one that worked fine it down and I cannot compare anything against it (it was a client also). My problem is, when I try to connect to the server I get:
