Source packages of Connector/Net are available for download from http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/net/.

Building the Source Code on Windows

The following procedure can be used to build the connector on Microsoft Windows.

  • Navigate to the root of the source code tree.

  • A Microsoft Visual Studio solution file named MySqlClient.sln is available to build the connector. Click this file to load the solution into Visual Studio.

    MySqlClient.sln must be compiled with VS 2008, VS 2010, or VS 2012. Also, depending on the version, the dependencies to build it include Visual Studio SDK, NUnit, Entity Framework, and ANTLR Integration for Visual Studio.

  • Select Build, Build Solution from the main menu to build the solution.
