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 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.
