MySQL 各种名称各表示什么意思

MySQL是一种开放源代码的关系型数据库管理系统（RDBMS），MySQL数据库系统使用最常用的数据库管理语言--结构化查询语言（SQL）进行数据库管理。

由于MySQL是开放源代码的，因此任何人都可以在General Public License的许可下下载并根据个性化的需要对其进行修改。MySQL因为其速度、可靠性和适应性而备受关注。大多数人都认为在不需要事务化处理的情况下，MySQL是管理内容最好的选择。

官方说明（转自知乎）:

MySQL-devel-VERSION.glibc23.i386.rpm

The libraries and include files that are needed if you want to compile other MySQL clients, such as the Perl modules.

MySQL-shared-compat-VERSION.glibc23.i386.rpm

This package includes the shared libraries for MySQL 3.23, 4.0, and so on, up to the current release. It contains single-threaded and thread-safe libraries. Install this package instead of MySQL-shared if you have applications installed that are dynamically linked against older versions of MySQL but you want to upgrade to the current version without breaking the library dependencies.

mysql是有c语言接口的，安装相应库后就可以链接了，一般连接mysql的函数是mysql_connect或者mysql_real_connect(大概就是这么拼的吧。。。）可以使用mysql_query执行sql语句
