structuring C++ program with mysql connections
I'm trying to create a c++ program that connects to mysql and can perform operations on the database such as add remove and edit.
For each table, I want to be able to add, remove and edit as well as run specific querys to my needs.
So far, I have everything in a single main file as I cannot figure out how to divide up my code to have one connection, and then be able to call other classes to run querys.
I clearly a beginner in C++ and am looking for some input into what I should have in each class
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <iostream>
#include "mysql_connection.h"
#include "cppconn/driver.h"
#include "cppconn/exception.h"
#include "cppconn/resultset.h"
#include "cppconn/statement.h"
using namespace std;
int main(void)
{
cout << endl;
try {
sql::Driver *driver;
sql::Connection *con;
sql::Statement *stmt;
sql::ResultSet *res;
/* Create a connection */
driver = get_driver_instance();
con = driver->connect("tcp://127.0.0.1:3306", "root", "root");
/* Connect to the MySQL test database */
con->setSchema("ParkSmart");
stmt = con->createStatement();
res = stmt->executeQuery("SELECT * FROM user WHERE userID = 9");
while (res->next()) {
cout << res->getString(2) << endl;
// getInt(1) returns the first column
// ... or column names for accessing results.
}
//add person(int personID, string fname, string lname)
try
{
int personID = 9;
string fname = "test";
string lname = "man";
string query = "SELECT * FROM person WHERE personID = " + to_string(personID);
res = stmt->executeQuery(query);
if (res->next()){
cout << "A person with that" << endl;
return 0;
//failure, already exists
}
else {
string query = "INSERT INTO user (personID, fname, lname) VALUES (" + to_string(personID) + ", '" + fname + "', '" + lname + ")" ;
res = stmt->executeQuery(query);
return 1;
//success, user added in to database
}
}
catch (sql::SQLException &e) {
cout << "Exception caught: no query returned" << endl;
//this is when there is no user with that userID, continue
//check for other more specific errors
}
What I am thinking is a main that calls a person class that connects to mysql and for each table there is a class that has its own connection but I'm getting seg faults
The code that I have can connect and edit the database properly, I am just lost on the actual file structures.
Any help or advice is appreciated!

c++ mysql class
Out of curiosity, are you using Visual Studio? If so, what version?

Not using virtual studio and not getting any errors! My main runs fine and inserts everything perfectly!
