Hi, I was wondering if there was a way that I could make my DarkGDK game communicate with a MySQL database.

All the database will do is store login info, who owns what items, and a win/lose/tie thing.

So is it possible?

Just two last questions (hopefully).

Doesn't DarkGDK.h already #include windows.h?

And do I just need MySQL installed to be able to access MySql.h, or do i need something else?

Yes ,DarkGDK should include windows.h ,in fact ,I did not use GDK and MySQL togather in my current project,because the database is on the server side which store all the user data .My GDK program is on the client side ,I used RakNet doing the network .

If you installed MySQL ,mysql.h is in the "include"folder ,"libmysql.lib" in the "lib"folder.Those are all you need.
