MYSQL_FIND_ROWS                             MySQL Database System                            MYSQL_FIND_ROWS



NAME
       mysql_find_rows - extract SQL statements from files

SYNOPSIS
       mysql_find_rows [options] [file_name ...]

DESCRIPTION
       mysql_find_rows reads files containing SQL statements and extracts statements that match a given
       regular expression or that contain USE db_name or SET statements. The utility was written for use
       with update log files (as used prior to MySQL 5.0) and as such expects statements to be terminated
       with semicolon (;) characters. It may be useful with other files that contain SQL statements as long
       as statements are terminated with semicolons.

       Invoke mysql_find_rows like this:

          shell> mysql_find_rows [options] [file_name ...]

       Each file_name argument should be the name of file containing SQL statements. If no file names are
       given, mysql_find_rows reads the standard input.

       Examples:

          mysql_find_rows --regexp=problem_table --rows=20 < update.log
          mysql_find_rows --regexp=problem_table  update-log.1 update-log.2

       mysql_find_rows supports the following options:

         --help, --Information

          Display a help message and exit.

         --regexp=pattern

          Display queries that match the pattern.

         --rows=N

          Quit after displaying N queries.

         --skip-use-db

          Do not include USE db_name statements in the output.

         --start_row=N

          Start output from this row.
