NAME 🖥️ mdb-header 🖥️

header** - Write header file from an MDB database

SYNOPSIS

mdb-header [database]

DESCRIPTION

mdb-header is a utility program distributed with MDB Tools.

It will dump the names and types of the tables and columns in an MDB database in a C header format.

It will create three files - types.h and dumptypes.[ch]

ENVIRONMENT

MDB_JET3_CHARSET
Defines the charset of the input JET3 (access 97) file. Default is CP1252. See iconv(1).

MDBICONV
Defines the output charset. Default is UTF-8. mdbtools must have been compiled with iconv.

MDBOPTS
Colon-separated list of options:

  • debug_like

  • debug_write

  • debug_usage

  • debug_ole

  • debug_row

  • debug_props

  • debug_all is a shortcut for all debug_* options

  • no_memo (deprecated; has no effect)

  • use_index (experimental; requires libmswstr)

EXIT STATUS

mdb-header exits with error code 1 if there was anunsupported type.

FUTURE DIRECTIONS

mdb-header is deprecated. Soon, it will no longer be distributed.

It is the feeling of developers that it is not used, as C code generation is now usually replaced by more generic approaches, including libmdb calls and odbc.

However, should you find this tool useful, drop us a line at https://github.com/mdbtools/mdbtools/issues/197 and we’ll consider maintaining it.
