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.
