Hi, I want to make a login system in C++ that is based on an online database (MySQL). I don't want to use external MySQL connections. I'm using libcurl/curlpp right now for connection to urls etc.
I have totally no idea where to start, can anybody point me on some tutorial/script/ further reading or on some basic functions I will have to use?
The information given is not suffient to get an idea of what you want.
libclurl is a client side program using that you can make http/ftp request and dump an html page/file to you client system. You can embed your password and username in the libcurl call.
But the server side should respone to such calls. You can create a c++ program(.cgi) to response such calls. Then it is a question of who is doing the access control. If it is the webserver then, from the cgi program pass that to server or if it is the SQL server then pass that to SQL sever.
