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).
