mariadb-connector-c-install

Installing and configuring MariaDB Connector/C, the C client library the other MariaDB connectors build on — the runtime and development package names per distribution (libmariadb3/libmariadb-dev, MariaDB-shared/MariaDB-devel), how to get compile and link flags from mariadb_config or pkg-config libmariadb rather than hardcoding them, the build-from-source prerequisites, and the configuration side: that the library reads option files only when the application asks for them via MYSQL_READ_DEFAULT_FILE or MYSQL_READ_DEFAULT_GROUP, which option groups it reads, how !includedir and unknown options differ from the server, and which TLS options depend on the library it was built against. Use when installing, building, packaging, or configuring Connector/C.
