1. 简介：
使用C/C++连接MySQL数据库执行增删改查操作，基本就是围绕以下两个文件展开：
- mysql.h（此头文件一般在MySQL的include文件夹内，如 D:\MySQL\mysql-5.7.23-winx64\include）
- MySQL官方 C API
C/C++连接数据库执行查询操作时需要将sql查询语句嵌入到mysql_query语句中，具体见API中的mysql_query()函数
2. 数据库安装
本文代码是以MySQL官方实例数据库employees为对象进行的查询，如果想直接运行下述代码，需要安装employees数据库，当然也可以使用下述代码对其他数据库进行查询，只需要修改代码中的部分sql语句。下面介绍一下employees数据库的安装：
employees下载：（一下两种方法都可以，任选其一，两方法得到的文件相同test_db-master.zip）
