Can't Find any online documentation for MySQL c++ connector API
I think http://dev.mysql.com/tech-resources/articles/mysql-connector-cpp.html Would be most suitable for this.
I have the same difficulties trying to find the documentation, but somewhere in the MySQL docs I found that the MySQL C++ Connector was designed to be compatible with the JDBC 4.0 API.
The MySQL Connector/C++ is compatible with the JDBC 4.0 API. However, MySQL Connector/C++ does not implement all of the JDBC 4.0 API methods.
Approximately 80% percent of the methods should work. That API can be found here.
