compile a project for android device

[navy]

Hello,
I'm french, so my English is very bad …
I install 7.3 and I try to compile a project for an android device to connect to a MySQL DB
When i compile for a Windows environnement, all works fine
When I compile for an Android environnement (32 bits), the compilation and the installation is good, but when I try to connect I have an error ...
What I have to indicate as librairy location in the Zconnection component ? libmysql.dll ? libmariadb.dll ? libmariadb.lib ?
If I indicate a dll file, I have an error.
If I indicate a lib file, I have an error …
I'm lost …

Thank you for your help ;o)

Hello,

Zeos cannot talk directly to MySQL (and other database systems). It always needs a client library. For MySQL and MariaDB on Linux this usually is libmysql.so. It also should be on Android. Unfortunately I don't know wether there is a libmysql.so for Adroid?

Currently we are working on a solution for problems like this. But it is not yet ready.

Best regards,

Jan

Hello,
I do it ! It works and it is a good news !
Delphi version : 10.3.3 Communauty
ZeosDBO version : 7.3
MariaDB server version 5.5.62 or 10.0.34
LibMySQLclient.so version : directory arm21 or arm23 or arm24 of this link
Program version 32 bits debug (I will try release later)
I hope it's a good new for the team
Best regards

Brave. Downloading and carelessly using modules from untrusted sources is very brave.

I'd choose something which is fairly transparent, e.g. GitHub.
You also have to be really careful with the licenses if you want to ship these with your application.

I use it only for my personal application
I don't find another libmysql.so which works
libmysql.so.16.0 doesn't works whith my mariadb DB, and I don't know how to make it
If you know a more recent version I will try it
Thank you

Nice -it is good to know that it works. But be prepared to face problems - we didn't (yet) set up a test environment for MySQL.

Yes - it is brave. But the link seems to be from this post on the Lazarus forums. So it is at least somewhat trustworthy, I think. Also it seems to not be easy to compile these libraries.

Now I know it's possible to connect, I will do an application to test in real with a test DB I have on my NAS
So I will say on this post if the application works good.
I will try to transpose a soft I did which works for a time.

Thank you for the reassuring news for the so library

So long …

best regards
