my_global.h causes a lot of problems

Hi,

Im currently making a small database wrapper in c++ using the mysql c api on
windows (using visual studio 2005). I'm using mysql 5.0 and according to
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/windows-client-compil ing.html
my_global.h should always be included before mysql.h. I've used

#include
#include

in a few of my class definition header files and works well. However when i
add those two lines to a new file which im working on I get a lot of error
messages like this:

As you can see it's related to bool. HOwever if I remove #include
and just #include all is well. Would it be safe
to avoid my_global.h completely.... or does anyone have a fix for this?
