MySqlBogart -- An OIS SubProject

MySqlBogart does backups and restores MySql-Databases:
- It keeps track of 'views' and its dependencies.
- It uses only SQL-Syntax (no mysqldump)!
- It is totally compatible to most mysql-webservices

What make MySqlBogart so special?

a) Most backup/restore tools use 'mysqldump' which is a
shell command. On most webservers the execution of shell
commands is blocked/forbidden.

MySqlBogart doesn't need shell commands at all!

b) Most backup/restore tools are able to get tables and
its contents. Only some are able to backup 'views'.
'Views' are important to advanced applications.
However 'views' depend on other 'views' or 'tables' and
so need to be backed up and restored in a special order.

MySqlBogard analyzes the creation-order of 'views' and
generates the correct restore file!
