A data dictionary, as the term is generally used, is what is contained
in INFORMATION_SCHEMA. It is meta data describing the types and names
and structure of the data within a given domain.
Python's concept of a dictionary is what other language call a hash
(perl), an associative array (aw

Hi,
Initially I used MySQL 5.0.4 for all my development. At that time I used the
following SQL query to load the whole data dictionary into my local memory
to reduce load on DB as I am using the prepared statements API, that
requires column types as one of the inputs.

As Rhino said, the INFORMATION_SCHEMA views (data dictionary) are coming
in v5.x (so they are close but not here yet). Until then a more "native"
alternative is to parse the results of either "SHOW CREATE TABLE
tablename" or "SHOW COLUMNS FROM tablename LIKE 'colu
The only way I know to access anything resembling a "data dictionary" in
MySQL V4.* is via the Java MetaData interfaces. I use these occasionally in
my programs. In your case, you want the getColumnDisplaySize() method in the
ResultSetMetaData Interface. This code fragment demons
how do I access the Data Dictionary through SQL? What I want to do is

Does MySQL have anything functionally equivalent to the data dictionary
views of Oracle? I am thinking particularly of retrieving, via a SQL
SELECT statement, a list of all my tables, or a list of all the columns of
a particular table along with the columns' attributes.
