.NET的数据库天然支持MSSQLServer，但是并非其他数据库不支持，而是微软基于自身利益需要，在支持、营销上推自己的数据库产品;但是作为平台战略，他并非排斥其他数据库，而是参考java体系提出了一套数据库访问规范，让各个第三方进行开发，提供特定的驱动。

　　MySQL是免费的数据库，在成本上具有无可替代的优势，但是目前来讲，并没有提供。微软把MySQL当作ODBC数据库，可以按照ODBC.Net规范进行访问，具体参考

　　http://www.microsoft.com/china/community/Columns/Luyan/6.mspx

　　而实际上，针对ODBC。Net的需要配置DSN的麻烦，而是出现了一个开源的系统MySQLDriverCS，对MySQL的开发进行了封装，实现了.net环境下对于MySQL数据库系统的访问。

　　http://sourceforge.net/projects/mysqldrivercs/

　　通过阅读源代码，我们看到MySQLDriverCS的思路是利用C函数的底层库来操纵数据库的，通常提供对MySQL数据库的访问的数据库的C DLL是名为libmySQL.dll的驱动文件，MySQLDriverCS作为一个.net库进行封装C风格的驱动。

　　具体如何进行呢?

　　打开工程后，我们看到其中有一个比较特殊的.cs文件CPrototypes.cs：

　　基本上是将C风格的基础数据结构进行.net的重新定义，然后通过InteropServices进行访问。

　　具体如何利用这个库进行操作，可以参考其中的例子。
