MSQL2MYSQL(1) MariaDB Database System MSQL2MYSQL(1)
msql2mysql - convert mSQL programs for use with MariaDB
msql2mysqlC-source-file ...
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 MariaDB by
changing the names of the C API functions.
The msql2mysql utility performs the conversion of mSQL C API
function calls to their MariaDB 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).
