NAME

       my_print_defaults - display options from option files

SYNOPSIS

       my_print_defaults [options] option_group ...

DESCRIPTION

       my_print_defaults displays the options that are present in option groups of option files. The output
       indicates what options will be used by programs that read the specified option groups. For example, the
       mysqlcheck program reads the [mysqlcheck] and [client] option groups. To see what options are present in
       those groups in the standard option files, invoke my_print_defaults like this:

           shell> my_print_defaults mysqlcheck client
           --user=myusername
           --password=secret
           --host=localhost

       The output consists of options, one per line, in the form that they would be specified on the command
       line.

       my_print_defaults supports the following options.

       •   --help, -?

           Display a help message and exit.

       •   --config-file=file_name, --defaults-file=file_name, -c file_name

           Read only the given option file. If no extension is given, default extension(.ini or .cnf) will be
           used. --config-file is deprecated, use --defaults-file instead. If --defaults-file is the first
           option, then read this file only, do not read global or per-user config files; should be the first
           option.

       •   --debug=debug_options, -# debug_options

           Write a debugging log. A typical debug_options string is ´d:t:o,file_name´. The default is
           ´d:t:o,/tmp/my_print_defaults.trace´.

       •   --defaults-extra-file=file_name, --extra-file=file_name, -e file_name

           Read this option file after the global option file but (on Unix) before the user option file. Should
           be the first option. --extra-file is deprecated, use  --defaults-extra-file.

       •   --defaults-group-suffix=suffix, -g suffix

           In addition to the groups named on the command line, read groups that have the given suffix.

       •   --mysqld

           Read the same set of groups that the mysqld binary does.

       •   --no-defaults, -n

           Return an empty string (useful for scripts).

       •   --verbose, -v

           Verbose mode. Print more information about what the program does.

       •   --version, -V

           Display version information and exit.
