Couldn't compile database module (Mac: Mount Lion)

I tried to compile the database core module and mysql module and this is what I got:
Building Modules
Compiling:mysqlhelper.cpp
/Volumes/Irravonia/BlitzMAX/Mac/mod/bah.mod/dbmysql.mod/mysqlhelper.cpp:32:10: fatal error: 'my_global.h' file not found
#include <my_global.h>
^
1 error generated.
Build Error: failed to compile /Volumes/Irravonia/BlitzMAX/Mac/mod/bah.mod/dbmysql.mod/mysqlhelper.cpp

I was using Mac OS Mountain Lion when this happened. I checked the files by the way and the file my_global.h does exist in the include folder of that module.... |

| I checked the files by the way and the file my_global.h does exist in the include folder of that module.... Which won't make a difference for you on OS X :-) You need to download and install the MySQL client library - which gets installed properly into your system. You probably want a 32-bit version of one of these : http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/c/ Get the appropriate DMG, and follow the instructions provided. Then you should be able to compile the module. |

| Thanks a lot for the quick reply. I dled the required file and installed the installer inside the DMG file, but I still get the same error. |
| ||
The module assumes headers were installed here :/usr/local/mysql/include ... mostly because they were whenever I've ran the installer. Maybe it puts them somewhere else now? |
| ||
| gotcha.... It was now installed in: /usr/local/mysql-connector-c-6.1.3-osx10.7-x86/include instead. Do I need to change a line to make it direct there? |
| ||
You can either do that (by amending common.bmx) or create a symlink :sudo ln -s /usr/local/mysql-connector-c-6.1.3-osx10.7-x86 /usr/local/mysql |

| Compilation successful. Thanks a lot, Bruce. |
