How To Return Query Output in XML Format?

Submitted by: Administrator
By default, "mysql" returns query output in text table format. If you want to receive query output in XML format, you need to use the "-X" command option. Here is a good tutorial exercise:

>cd mysqlin
>mysql -u root -X test

mysql> SELECT * FROM links;
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<resultset statement="SELECT * FROM links">
<row>
<field name="id">1</field>
<field name="name">www.GlobalGuideLine.com</field>
</row>
<row>
<field name="id">10</field>
<field name="name">www.GlobalGuideLine.com</field>
</row>
</resultset>
2 rows in set (0.00 sec)
