MySQL Connector/C++ OS X 10.9 Mavericks and XCODE 5.0.2

Question

I've upgraded to XCode 5.0.2 along with OS X 10.9 Mavericks and MYSQL 5.6.16 recently. Has anyone had any luck getting the MySQL Connector/C++ to compile and work properly with this setup?

I've been linking with the distributed MySQL Connector/C++ library under Snow Leopard with no problem for a few years now, but when I shifted to the above mentioned setup, I have no luck.

When I use the sql::Driver->connect I get EXC_BAD_ACCESS (code=EXC_I386_GPFLT)

USING:

• XCode 5.0.2
• Mavericks 10.9.2
• MYSQL server 5.6.16 Mac OS X 10.7 (x86, 64-bit), DMG Archive
• MYSQL Connector/C++ Mac OS X 10.7 (x86, 64-bit), Compressed TAR Archive
• Boost 1.55

I saw the following post: MySQL Connector/C++ BAD ACCESS crash

So tried I downloading the MYSQL Connector/C++ source 1.1.3 and managed to get the 'static_test' subprogram to work, but the other tests fail with the same sql::Driver->connect returning NULL.

Anybody?

OK resolved.

The following post is the same problem:

Just in case someone else has this situation:

---

1. I downloaded the MYSQL Connector/C++ source 1.1.13 and CMake
2. I used the following command line to create a XCode project: cmake -G Xcode
3. Compiled everything in XCode
4. Copied the created libs into the mysqlconn/lib directory
