6 my_print_defaults - display options from option files

10
12 my_print_defaults displays the options that are present in option
13 groups of option files. The output indicates what options are used by
14 programs that read the specified option groups. For example, the
15 mysqlcheck program reads the [mysqlcheck] and [client] option groups.
16 To see what options are present in those groups in the standard option
17 files, invoke my_print_defaults like this:
18
19 $> my_print_defaults mysqlcheck client
20 --user=myusername
21 --password=password
22 --host=localhost
23
24 The output consists of options, one per line, in the form that they
25 would be specified on the command line.
26
27 my_print_defaults supports the following options.
28
29 • --help, -? Display a help message and exit.
30
31 • --config-file=file_name, --defaults-file=file_name, -c file_name
32 Read only the given option file.
33
34 • --debug=debug_options, -# debug_options Write a debugging log. A
35 typical debug_options string is d:t:o,file_name. The default is
36 d:t:o,/tmp/my_print_defaults.trace.
37
38 • --defaults-extra-file=file_name, --extra-file=file_name, -e
39 file_name Read this option file after the global option file but
40 (on Unix) before the user option file.

42 For additional information about this and other option-file
43 options, see Section 4.2.2.3, “Command-Line Options that Affect
44 Option-File Handling”.

57 login path file, use the mysql_config_editor utility. See
58 mysql_config_editor(1).
