my_bool has been renamed to bool in MySQL 8.0. https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/c-api-prepared-statement-data-structures.html

That doesn't sound like it has anything to do with macOS?

[imKota]

@esabol yeah, sorry))

[esabol]

What about MariaDB compatibility? Do they still use my_bool or have they switched to bool as well?

[imKota]

@esabol I dont know. When I used mariadb, I had errors in the build. Which I still have not decided. So I compiled the project with mysql, removed mysql and then installed mariadb

[esabol]

https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/mysql_bind/ would seem to indicate that MariaDB still uses my_bool.

We'll probably need configure to determine whether to use my_bool or bool and set an appropriate #define... EDIT: No. See next comment.

I've also seen the following used:

#if !defined(MARIADB_BASE_VERSION) && !defined(MARIADB_VERSION_ID) && \
  MYSQL_VERSION_ID >= 80001 && MYSQL_VERSION_ID != 80002
typedef bool my_bool;
#endif

#include <stdbool.h> is only needed in C code, and the only occurrence of my_bool in gearmand is in C++ code, so the above should work. Are you willing to test this, @imKota ?

See https://jira.mariadb.org/browse/MDEV-13773 and https://bugs.mysql.com/?id=87337
