<b>MySQL Snap</b> is intended for creation of backup copies of MySQL
database or a collection of databases as well as for recovering or transferring the data to
another SQL server (not necessarily a MySQL server). This utility is fully compatible with standard MySQL utilities.
<br><br>
Below is the list of main functions the program realizes:
<br>
<dl><dd>
<li>Dumping databases (creation of backup copies of databases)
<ul><li>Connection to the specified database or to all databases at the same time;
<li>Saving connection parameters and keys in special files to reduce time required for
connection and parameters settings;
<li>Choosing the necessary databases for dumping (from one database to all MySQL databases);
<li>Dump parameters settings: setting the keys influencing the forming of result file (which
contains MySQL statements);
<li>Choosing the necessary tables and conditions for dumping selected rows only;
<li>Dumping the databases taking into account chosen settings and conditions into result dump
file containing SQL statements;
<li>Possibility of displaying of dump process with the help of special process indicator.
</ul>
<li>Recovering databases
<ul><li>Connection to the specified database or to all databases at the same time;
<li>Saving connection parameters and keys in special files to reduce time required for
connection and parameters settings;
<li>Choosing the necessary database, where recovery will be implemented to (only if one
database is recovered);
<li>Setting recovery parameters;
<li>Recovery of one or several databases from files containing SQL statements (dump files);
<li>Possibility of displaying of recovery process with the help of special process indicator.
</ul>
</dl>
The <b>result of dumping</b> is the file containing SQL statements and all the necessary information for recovering the
exact copy of the database.
