Unable to install DBD::mysql

Hi Forum,

We have Active State Perl 5.8.8, and now we are trying to connect to MySQl Database via SolidDB Engine,

For this we downloaded the DBD::mysql from CPAN, after downloading it we did execute the Makefile.PL which threw error as mentioned below in red  

C:\temp\DBD-mysql-4.005>perl Makefile.PL

Failed to determine directory of mysql.h. Use  

  perl Makefile.PL --cflags=-I<dir>  

to set this directory. For details see the INSTALL.html file,
