Time to connect to a database using pure C++, no codeblocks, no special IDEs, no QT, just C++ and MySQL.

NOTE: You need to have libmysqlclient-dev installed if you're using MySQL (linux)

Running the code: g++ connectdb.cpp -o output -L/usr/include/mariadb/mysql -lmariadbclient
Note: Remember to modify if you don't use MariaDB
