You cannot. Mysql is a pain to maintain. They break interface compatibility
almost every release.
So its mean that mysql is difficult to followed?

Yes. The best is to stick to 1 version of MySQL as long as possible.

You can do that, but it's not cross-platform, and slow...

Yes. (It's not for nothing that ppl still use mysql 4.0 and 4.1)
Also, it's only the client. So you can use a mysql4.1-client-lib with a mysql 5.0 server.

You could offcourse use some db-library, like sqldb or ZEOS. Then the Zeos/sqldb-developers have to follow mysql for you...
