MySql C++ connector getString() doesn't work correctly, while getInt works perfectly

Question

I tried to connect C++ to MySql and I just can\'t get this to work properly. I used latest MySql and C++/Connector for Windows from Oracle site. I also use VS2010.

Answer 1

The code below worked for me:

sql::ResultSet *res;
res->getString("Column name").c_str();

Just using res->getString("Column name") was crashing my application.
