Does not work with any modern version of Node.js

[ghost]

Any recommendation for a project compatible with "node-mysql-libmysqlclient" that will work with a current version of Node.js?

[abhisekdg]

Node Version - 6.10.2 ( Previously working fine with v0.10.26)
NPM version - 3.10.10
OS - MacOS Sierra 10.12.4

@https://travis-ci.org/Sannis/node-mysql-libmysqlclient/jobs/194103714

var mysqllibclient = require('mysql-libmysqlclient'); ( 1.5.2)

After upgrading the node version to latest, it started throwing error.

MysqlConnectionQueued.prototype = new bindings.MysqlConnection();
TypeError: Cannot read property 'MysqlConnection' of null

Please can anyone suggest how it be supported in latest version of node ??

I switched to v6.10.2 but no noticeable change in the build errors. Given I have gcc (GCC) 7.2.1 20171224 might be the problem which throws some nice and overlooked errors. Given I have a long list of errors I am addressing only a few:
