The embedded MySQL server library makes it possible to run a full-featured MySQL server inside a client application. The main benefits are increased speed and more simple management for embedded applications.
The embedded server library is based on the client/server version of MySQL, which is written in C/C++. Consequently, the embedded server also is written in C/C++. There is no embedded server available in other languages.
The API is identical for the embedded MySQL version and the client/server version. To change an old threaded application to use the embedded library, you normally only have to add calls to the following functions:
Function | When to Call |
mysql_server_init() |
Should be called before any other MySQL function is called, preferably
early in the main() function. |
mysql_server_end() |
Should be called before your program exits. |
mysql_thread_init() |
Should be called in each thread you create that accesses MySQL. |
mysql_thread_end() |
Should be called before calling pthread_exit()
|
Then you must link your code with
libmysqld.a
instead of
libmysqlclient.a
.
The
mysql_server_
functions are also included in
xxx
()libmysqlclient.a
to allow you to change
between the embedded and the client/server version by just
linking your application with the right library. See
Sección 24.2.12.1, “mysql_server_init()
”.
