[gnome-db] A little help with MinGW

[sankar bose <shankarbose imp gmail com>]

Hi everybody,
 i am not a linux user so i dont understand how to solve this problem.
i am trying to compile libgda with mingw .Using the msys shell i used the below command

 $ ./configure --prefix=/c/libgdam/ --with-mysql=/c/MySQL
  
        i have installed the gtkmm dev package for windows so all the dependencies are  also installed. Everything working fine until the compilation goes into the providers dir where i faced the below problem..

 /bin/sh ../../libtool --tag=CC   --mode=link gcc  -g -O2 -export-dynamic -module
 -avoid-version -no-undefined   -o libgda-mysql.la -rpath /c/libgdam/lib/libgda-

                              from the above messages i understand that its not properly linking with the libmysqlclient.a  lib file , i have tried to make changes in the make files so it can link properly but nothing work out. i have started c++ gui  programing with gtkmm and  Murray  
has given me a advice to use libgda . i know that precompiled libs are available but i want to atleast compile this package on my own so i will be little more confident when using this package. Please provide any solution to this problem.......
