Proclaimed Rubber Ducky from the mountaintops:

> #define def_host_name NULL /*host to connecto to (default localhost) */

>  cin >> def_host_name;

Please learn some C++ before diving into a custom library like MySQL.lib.

In this case, you used #define to tell the compiler to replace every 
"def_host_name" it sees with "NULL". NULL is typically 0.

Then you say 'cin >> 0', and the compiler goes "wha??".

Read /Accelerate C++/, and then use the 'std::string' object.
