Don't use xampp. It's only intended to simplify the installation of Apache and MySQL and is primarily intended for novice end-users. It will not install the necessary headers and libraries you need to include and link with C++. As such it is not suitable for development purposes. Instead, you must install Apache and MySQL separately, using the complete installation option rather than just the typical install.
