NAME
msql2mysql - convert mSQL programs for use with MySQL
SYNOPSIS
- msql2mysqlC-source-file ...
DESCRIPTION
- Initially, the MySQL C API was developed to be very similar to
that for the mSQL database system. Because of this, mSQL programs
often can be converted relatively easily for use with MySQL by
changing the names of the C API functions.
The msql2mysql utility performs the conversion of mSQL C
API function calls to their MySQL equivalents. msql2mysql
converts the input file in place, so make a copy of the original
before converting it. For example, use msql2mysql like this:
shell> cp client-prog.c client-prog.c.orig
shell> msql2mysql client-prog.c
client-prog.c converted
Then examine client-prog.c and make any post-conversion
revisions that may be necessary.
msql2mysql uses the replace utility to make the
function name substitutions. See replace(1).
