20.4.39 mysql_query()

int mysql_query(MYSQL *mysql, const char *query)

20.4.39.1 Description

Executes the SQL query pointed to by the null-terminated string query. The query must consist of a single SQL statement. You should not add a terminating semicolon (`;') or \g to the statement.

mysql_query() cannot be used for requêtesthat contain binary data; you should use mysql_real_query() instead. (Binary data may contain the `\0' character, which mysql_query() interprets as the end of the query string.)

20.4.39.2 Return values

Zero if the query was successful. Non-zero if an error occurred.
