Released MyMSSQLDump 1.1

My program for exporting data from MSSQL and Sybase into a whole bunch of other formats, including:

• JSON
• HTML
• CSV
• MySQL (mysqldump style)
• MYSQL / Sybase INSERT-style
• Oracle INSERT-style

is now released in version 1.1. There is a whole bunch of new things, most notable Oracle style export format, but also:

• DATETIME datatype formatting
• DATETIMEOFFSET formatting
• Other temporal datatype support
• Much more flexible formatting in general
• More tests

As usual this is GPL v2 licenced and is available to download from sourceforge.

Powerful MariaDB exports using MyMDBDump

You can export data from MariaDB using mysqldump and a bunch of other tools, but if you need really flexible output format, this might not be what you need. Instead, give MyMDBDump a try. This tool will export data just like mysqldump, but the output format is a lot more flexible. I urge you to test it and check out the documentation, but some if the features are, in short:

• Dynamic column support - Dynamic columns can be exported as binary, JSON or even as SQL, where I think the latter is a pretty unique feature.
• Oracle export format - This exports data as INSERT statements, just like mysqldump, but in an Oracle friendly way.
• MS SQL / SQL Server format - This exports data as SQL Server friendly INSERTs.
• Binary data formats - Supporting plain binary, base64, hex and a number of more formats.
• Transaction support.
• JSON export support - Including embedding dynamic columns as JSON.
• UTF8 support and UTF8 validity checking.
• Generated ROWNUM column output
• FLOAT and DOUBLE formatting
• DATETIME, TIMESTAMP, DATE and TIME custom formating.

And a lot more. Download from sourceforge.
