Aye. eAthena, and by extension rAthena and Hercules, have been ready for MySQL 5.5 for a while.

Napster:

 

Since the use of Hercules requires MySQL to be installed, we don't update the files in the 3rdparty folder (actually, there were talks of getting rid of that directory, probably back on rAthena). Since when MySQL-server is installed, it includes the mysql.h file in the correct place, the files in the 3rd party folder are not required.

 

I'll bring this up in a meeting soon and see what the fate of this folder might be. We realize they're out of date but there's been no reason to update them as no one uses them.

 

If for some reason you don't have mysql-server on the same machine that you plan on running Hercules on, then you can install the libraries seperately, and is actually recommended as they are put in the right place and other scripts/programs can access them. For most Linux distributions this is package libmysqlclient-dev.

Just to clarify, does the obsolescence of the 3rdparty folder mean that tables are created automatically (so long as MySQL is installed)?

Not AFAIK, you still need to load main.sql and logs.sql in your database, but they're in the SQL folder.
