NAME
mdb-parsecsv - Convert CSV table dump into C file.
SYNOPSIS
mdb-parsecsv file
DESCRIPTION
mdb-parsecsv is a utility program distributed with MDB Tools.
mdb-parsecsv takes a CSV file representing a database table, and converts it into a C array.
NOTES
If the first argument does not exist as a file, mdb-parsecsv will look for the same filename with ’.txt’ appended.
The file extension is stripped, and the output written to the base name plus a ’.c’ extension.
ENVIRONMENT
MDB_JET3_CHARSET
Defines the charset of the input JET3 (access 97) file. Default is CP1252. See iconv(1).
MDBICONV
Defines the output charset to use for the SQL file. Default is UTF-8. mdbtools must have been compiled with iconv.

FUTURE DIRECTIONS
mdb-parsecsv is deprecated. Soon, it will no longer be distributed.
It is the feeling of developers that it is not used, as C code generation is now usually replaced by more generic approaches, including libmdb calls and odbc.
However, should you find this tool useful, drop us a line at https://github.com/mdbtools/mdbtools/issues/197 and we’ll consider maintaining it.
