Appendix F. C API Reference

This appendix describes the C language application programming interface for the MySQL client library. The API consists of a set of functions for communicating with MySQL servers and accessing databases, and a set of data types used by those functions.

This appendix serves as a reference, so it includes only brief code fragments illustrating use of the client library. For complete client programs and notes on writing them, see Chapter 6, "The MySQL C API."
