I've recently started using MySQL. There is more than one C++ binding and as far as I can tell, none are worth learning.

I suggest you use the C binding. There's only one. It's standard. It makes sense. None of these apply to abny of the C++ bindings I've seen.

MySQL really is a poor cousin.

I suggest you use the C binding.


ok thank you very much but are there any tutorials that teach you how to us this"c binding" and what is a c binding
There are many tutorials on how to use MySQL from C.

The C binding is what I call the C interface to MySQL. Once you understand it, you could probably even write your own wrapper. Heavens knows it can't be any worse than the one out there.
