Hi everybody. I do a lot of maintenance things on the DB by piping SQL files to my MySql DB.
What would be very useful is to find a way of passing very simple *arguments* to these scripts. The only way I can think of it is using a nasty trick > mysql --set-variable=wait_timeout=1234 < file.sql and file.sql contains the line: > SELECT @VAR:=@@wait_timeout; This lets me smuggle a variable into my SQL script. Has anyone got a cleaner way? Tom. -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
