I'm trying to use the mySQL c++ connector. I have downloaded and extracted the binaries following the mysql guide https://dev.mysql.com/doc/connector-cpp/8.0/en/connector-cpp-installation-binary.html

When i include the xdevapi like so

#include <mysqlx/xdevapi.h>

I get the following errors

/tmp/cc6dzD4k.o: In function `mysqlx::string::operator std::__cxx11::basic_string, std::allocator >abi:cxx11 const':

/git_repos/FHM/Camera/Software/ExtractMetadata/Build/Linux/../../../mysql-connector-c++-8.0.13/include/mysqlx/devapi/common.h:115: undefined reference to `mysqlx::string::Impl::to_utf8[abi:cxx11](mysqlx::string const&)'

collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

Makefile:2: recipe for target 'x86' failed

make: *** [x86] Error 1

My Makefile look like this:

g++ -I../../Src -I../../../Fee/Src \
-I/../../../OpenCV/include/opencv \
-I../../../OpenCV/include/opencv2 \
-I../../../mysql-connector-c++-8.0.13/include/ \
-L../../../OpenCV/lib/LinX86 \
-L../../../mysql-connector-c++-8.0.13/lib64/libmysqlcppconn8-static.a -lssl -lcrypto -lpthread \
-g -D LINUX -o extractmetadata ../../Src/extractMetadata.cpp ../../../Fee/Src/Status.cpp \
-std=c++11 \
-lopencv_world -lstdc++fs \

Does anyone know what I'm missing here?

You are not linking with the MySQL library:

-L../../../mysql-connector-c++-8.0.13/lib64/libmysqlcppconn8-static.a

Use:

../../../mysql-connector-c++-8.0.13/lib64/libmysqlcppconn8-static.a

or:

-L../../../mysql-connector-c++-8.0.13/lib64/ -lmysqlcppconn8-static

Thank you, but still the same error unfortunately. I have updated the question as it was a bit difficult to see the error message If I try to use the last alternative I get "g++: error: =lmysqlcppconn8-static: No such file or directory"
Oops, sorry, that was a typo, it's -, not =.
Got it working eventually when I found out that I also had version 1.0 of openssl while I needed version 1.1.
@eirikaso How did you actually do the update? On my Ubuntu 18.04 machine the command openssl version returns OpenSSL 1.1.1 11 Sep 2018, however in the lib-directory, I find /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/openssl-1.0.0.
@ctenar Sorry, It's a long time ago and I don't remember. The PC i did it on has also been formatted
