/**
 * This example runs all command in a .sql file, using multi-queries.
 * Note that special commands that are handled by the mysql command line tool
 * (like DELIMITER) won't work.
 *
 * For this example, we will be using the 'boost_mysql_examples' database.
 * You can get this database by running db_setup.sql.
 * This example assumes you are connecting to a localhost MySQL server.
 *
 * This example uses synchronous functions and handles errors using exceptions.
