all</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=4><SPAN class=049120007-18112006>Maybe this has a
little about Catalyst. But I only want to tell you the good
news</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=4><SPAN class=049120007-18112006>I have compiled
mysql successfully in cygwin</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=4><SPAN class=049120007-18112006>Our application is
running on Linux. But I only can develop it on windows Then deploy it to
Linux.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=4><SPAN class=049120007-18112006>So I use cygwin(<A
href="http://www.cygwin.com">http://www.cygwin.com</A>) to emulate linux
enviroment and debug our application.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=4><SPAN class=049120007-18112006>I try to use
DBD::MYSQL module in my application under cygwin. But it needs mysql libary when
installing DBD::MYSQL.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=4><SPAN class=049120007-18112006>So I try to compile
mysql on cygwin. You know, cygwin just only emulates Linux(Unix). It's not
real linux(Unix). Mysql server side service is not supported by cygwin but
client side. Because cygwin is running under windows, Windows can provide MYSQL
server side service. </SPAN></FONT></DIV>
