mdb-header(1) Executable programs or shell commands mdb-header(1) NAME mdb-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 data- base 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 main- taining it.
