Combining Cocoa and MySQL

Question

I was looking for SO to help with this, but I cannot find a specific solution. Is it possible or not to connect to mysql database using Cocoa? Because I'm working on a program that I want to expand to a database, but I'm sure I don't know how to do this! I mean, the cocoa -mysql package is very outdated, and I don’t even know what the C shell is!

Can someone please tell me how to do this, or at least burst my bubble to tell me this is not possible?

Thanks!

Since Core Data came out, I'm not surprised that other Cocoa DB-wrapping libraries are getting deprecated. If you don’t need to specifically wrap the MySQL database, I would look at Core Data and its SQLite server. It is available for both Mac OS and iPhone platforms.
