mdb-array(1)

NAME
mdb-array - Export data in an MDB database table to a C array.

SYNOPSIS
mdb-array database table

DESCRIPTION
mdb-array is a utility program distributed with MDB Tools.

mdb-array prints a C source code file to stdout, containing an array representing the data of the specified table.

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)

FUTURE DIRECTIONS
mdb-array 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.
