Constructor & Destructor Documentation

MySQLaux::Database::Database ( string const & host = string(),
string const & user = string(),
string const & passwd = string(),
string const & dbname = string(),
unsigned port = 0,
string const & socket = string(),
unsigned clientflag = 0 ) throw (Error)
 

Constructor.

Parameters:
host   optional host database server runs on. Either a literal hostname or an IP address. If none given "localhost" is tried.
user   optional name of user connecting. If none given the user running the application is tried.
passwd   optional user password. If none given only password-free MySQL databases can be accessed.
dbname   optional database name to connect to. If none is given the connection can only be used to create a new database.
port   optional port mysql server listens to via TCP/IP. Defaults to the one given in the Betwork Services configuration file (usually 3306 from /etc/services)
socket   optional socket mysql server listens to for local connections. If given specifies the unix socket that should be used for the connection.
clientflag   optional MySQL client flag. Required in very special circumstances:
Flag nameFlag meaning
CLIENT_FOUND_ROWSReturn the number of found (matched) rows, not the number of affected rows
CLIENT_NO_SCHEMADon't allow the db_name.tbl_name.col_name syntax. This is for ODBC; it causes the parser to generate an error if you use that syntax, which is is useful for trapping bugs in some ODBC programs.
CLIENT_COMPRESSUse compression protocol
CLIENT_ODBCThe client is an ODBC client. This changes mysqld to be more ODBC-friendly.
