Introduction

Introduction
MySQL-Front is a stand-alone MySQL front end tool that simplifies the creation and changing of any
database object, adding and changing any database record and a lot of addition steps developing
applications with database access in each developing language.
This program combines the ease of use with the powerful of a desktop application. There are several
different visual elements to enable an easily navigation and fast changes. If the user don't know the
Short Query Language (SQL) MySQL-Front overtake this - but it allows the user learning by seeing
the used SQL statements. The simple and intuitive interface is easy to use for beginners of database
without any SQL knowledge but it a allows a power user to do all he need in once.
The dialog based interface translated in more than 30 languages leaves out all the cryptic SQL
statements. MySQL-Front enables the user to do what he wants to do - without bothering a lot of
knowledge about incompatibilities the different MySQL version, wasting a lot of time with waiting of a
database response or offering unusable features for the used MySQL implementation. It concentrates
the focus directly to what the users wants to do: Developing his own database application.

View

5.4.1

Object Browser
Menu: View / Object Browser

Switches the view to the data structure.

Inside the Object Browser the structure of the database with all object like tables, field, indices etc will
be shown. MySQL-Front offers only the features the related MySQL database version allows in the
context. All other features are disabled and hidden to help the user to figure out what is possible and
what not without requesting the database.
Note:
The Object Browser forwards all changes to the Data Browser automatically.
Changes generated by the SQL statements executed in the SQL Editor will not be overtaken
automatically, since MySQL-Front can't parse all sent SQL statements and the MySQL doesn't
informs client applications like MySQL-Front about any changes.
With the Refresh

5.4.2

15

or the Refresh all

16

feature the user can update the Object Browser easily.

Data Browser
Menu: View / Data Browser

Switches the view to the data.

The Data Browser show the content of a table or a view inside a data grid like known from MS Excel.
The number of records to be received can be limit. An offset can be set for the first record to be
shown.
It's possible to reduce the numbers or records fetched from the database by a limit count or by an
optional filter. The filter will be sent as WHERE clausel in the SELECT query.
A quick search field offers an easy to use way to get all records with a search value.
Binary large objects (BLOB) values will be shown as an image (GIF, JPG, BMP or PNG), as RTF text
or inside a hex editor.

5.4.3

Object IDE
Menu: View / Object IDE

Switches the view to an integrated development environment for Views, Stored Procedures, Stored
Functions, Triggers and Events.

Powered by Nils Hoyer

Program

12

The Object IDE allows to edit the source for Procedure and Function / the execute statement for
Views, Triggers and Events easily. You can edit the code like know from a normal text editor.
To update the changes one click to the toolbar is needed only. This will remove the previous existing
object and creating a new one if the MySQL database does not allow a changing of the existing one.
If a creating of the updated source is not possible (because of invalid changes) the previous existing
object will be re-created automatically.
To test a Procedure / Function you have a line with the input parameters below the source code
area. For each parameter an input field is given - related to the field type definition of the source
code. The result of the function executing and the output values of the INOUT and OUT parameters
will be shown as a result set at the bottom of the Object IDE.
For Procedures with multiple result sets a tab for each single result set will be shown.
To test a Trigger below the source code area there is one single row of the table fields values. You
can enter values to use one button for the main trigger events: INSERT, REPLACE, UPDATE and
DELETE. Since a Trigger cannot show an output (wether a result set nor parameters) you have to
check the working of the trigger by yourself with the SQL Editor or Data Browser. Please don't forget
to update the view of it after executing the trigger.
To test an Event MySQL-Front stores the statement of the Event in a Stored Procedure temporary,
executes this Procedure and remove it again. Like the triggers also an Event doesn't have an output.

5.4.4

Query Builder
Menu: View / Query Builder

Switches the view to a visual builder of SQL queries.

The main window can be divided into the following parts:
The Query Building Area is the main area where the visual representation of query will be
displayed. This area allows you to define source database objects and derived tables, define links
between them and configure properties of tables and links.
The Columns Pane is located below the query building area. It is used to perform all necessary
operations with query output columns and expressions. Here you can define field aliases, sorting
and grouping, and define criteria.
The Query Tree Pane is located at the left. Here you may browse your query and quickly locate any
part of it.
The page control above the query building area will allow you to switch between the main query and
sub-queries.
The small area in the corner of the query building area with the "Q" letter is the union sub-query
handling control. Here you may add new union sub-queries and perform all necessary operations
with them.
To add a table to the query please drag&drop it from the navigator.
To remove an object from the query, select it and press the Del key or simply click the Close button in
the object header.

Powered by Nils Hoyer

Program

13

You may change the properties of each object added to the query by right clicking the object and
selecting the Edit... item from the drop-down menu or simply by double-clicking the object header.
To create a link between two objects (i.e. join them) you should select the field by which you want to
link the object with another and drag it to the corresponding field of the other object. After you finish
dragging, a line connecting the linked fields will appear.
The join type created by default is INNER JOIN, i.e. only matching records of both tables will be
included in the resulting dataset. To define other types of joins you should right click the link and
select the Edit... item in the drop down menu or simply double-click it to open the Link Properties
dialog. This dialog allows you to define join type and other link properties.
To remove a link between objects, right-click the link line and select the Remove item in the dropdown menu.
The easiest way to add a field to the list of query output fields is to check the checkbox at the left of
the field name in the Query Building Area. To include all the fields of the object you should click the
checkbox at the left of the asterisk item of the object.
Another way is to select a field name from the drop-down list of the Expression column in the
Columns Pane. And the most common way is to write any valid expression in the Expression column
in the Columns Pane.
To remove a field from the list of query output fields you should uncheck the checkbox at the left of
the field name in the Query Building Area or you may remove it by unchecking the Output column
checkbox.
Such operations as removing lines from the Columns Pane or re-ordering output fields are available
by right clicking on the leftmost gray column via the drop-down menu.
The output field's aliases may be defined in the Alias column of the Columns Pane.
To enable sorting of output query fields you should use the Sort Type and Sort Order columns of the
Columns Pane. The Sort Type column allows you to specify the way the fields will be sorted - in the
Ascending or Descending order. The Sort Order column allows you to setup the order in which fields
will be sorted, if more than one field will be sorted. To disable sorting by some field you should clear
the Sort Type column for this field.
It's also possible to create or edit a SQL query directly. This will overtake all changes into the visual
query builder.

5.4.5

SQL Editor
Menu: View / SQL Editor

Switches the view to the SQL Editor.

The SQL Editor allows to write one or multiple SQL statements and execute the directly. The result
sets of queries will be shown below to syntax highlighting editor.
It's possible to execute all statements at once, execute the marked code or the execute the SQL
statement where it cursor is located in.
To get help about the SQL commands MySQL-Front offers a context sensitive SQL help. Just

pressing <F1> to get a help to the keyword the cursor is located.

Note:
To get the context sensitive help of the SQL statements the MySQL has to support the HELP
feature. This requires MySQL version 4.1 or higher. Additional the help tables of the mysql
database has to be filled. This can be made by executing the fill_help_tables.sql script attached
with the MySQL database installation. To do this you need full access to the mysql database or
you have to ask the database administrator to fill this tables.

5.4.6

Diagram
Menu: View / Diagram

Graphical diagram of table relationships.

Tables can be added from the Navigator 14 with Drag&Drop or Cut&Paste or by the context menu of
the diagram. Foreign Keys will be added automaticly.
Tables and Foreign Keys can be moved with the mouse.
A <Shift+LeftClick> to a foreign key line adds a further edge into it. Unneeded edges will be removed
automaticly.

5.4.7

Location Bar
Menu: View / Address Bar

MySQL-Front offers the same navigation as with Web Browsers with the help of URLs. This can
significantly speed up searches with many databases / tables.
Favorites also use these addresses (URI format). It is also possible to call MySQL-Front by using a
URL. This means links from the Windows start menu or other programs can be directly setup to
connect with a specific view within MySQL-Front.
This also functions the other way around. Addresses of other programs can also be entered into
MySQL-Front. For example, entering http://www.sql-front.com/ opens the homepage of MySQL-Front
in the Web Browser.

the destination database on the right.
To transfer a database please select it on the left - and select the destination session on the right.
It's also possible to transfer several tables at once by selecting the tables with Ctrl-Left-Click with the
mouse.
Structure:
The data structure (objects) will be transferred.
Data:
The data will be transferred.
Existing Data:
Allows to update existing records. (Requires identical primary key definition for Source and
Destination).
Disable Keys:
Foreign key will be disabled while transfer. This could be needed to allow circular foreign keys.
Lock Tables:
Tables will be locked while transfer is running. No other application can change a value in this
time.
Error Handling:
If the Error Handling will be ignored the data will be transfered by the LOAD DATA INFILE
statement. This is the smallest SQL overhead - all data will be transfered with one single (bug big)
database request.
This does not allow a individual error handling.

Synchronize

5.7.4

27

Synchronize
Menu: Extras / Synchronize

MySQL-Front allows the synchronization of different tables. The primary index is used to identify the
data. This means that tables can be synchronized only with a primary index.
The objects of the table(s) (fields / indices) are identified with the column names.
Foreign keys are not transferred during the synchronization.

Powered by Nils Hoyer

Program

28

You can synchronize two different tables on different (or the same) session.
Otherwise it's possible to synchronize two databases or two entire sessions. But it's not recommended
to synchronize two sessions, since this encloses the "mysql" database.
What:
Either the data structure (objects) and/or the data can be synchronized.
Direction:
Only the table(s) identified as slaves are modified.
Update existing objects:
The settings (e.g. data type) of existing object is updated.
Existing data:
Existing data are updated (overwritten) without any warning.
Ignore Foreign Keys:
Foreign keys are deactivated during synchronization. Please consult the MySQL manual for a
description of advantages and disadvantages of this functionality.
Lock Tables:
A table being synchronized is locked to other users / programs during the synchronization process.
Please consult the MySQL manual for a description of advantages and disadvantages of this
functionality.
Backup:
A table can be generated before synchronizing data. This table will be assigned the name of the
respective table with the extension "_bak". Already existing copies with this extension are
overwritten without warning.
A backup copy is generated completely within the database. Creating backups can use significant
resources of the database if tables are large.
Warning:
Existing data are changed during synchronization and cannot be restored.

How to Start
How to start after installing MySQL-Front?
You are prompted to create a so-called session

30

when launching MySQL-Front for the first time.

The following informations are usually required for a session:

Server (Connection tab)
User (Login tab)
Password (Login tab)
Please ask your database administrator (often your ISP / Web hoster) for this information.
For using a database on your local computer mostly you have to use the following values:
Server: "localhost"
User: "root"
Do not enter a password or specify a database.
Can I run MySQL-Front from a USB device without installing it on a local system?
Yes, you need to store some files to your USB device:
MySQL-Front.exe from your program folder
MySQL-Front.key a text file with your licence key (please create it manually)
Desktop.xml an empty text file
If you execute MySQL-Front.exe on a system without an installation of MySQL-Front it will store
all settings inside the same folder like MySQL-Front.exe.

Connection Problems
MySQL-Front reports connection problems: "Can't connect to MySQL server on
'www.server.com' (10060)". What can I do?
Check the network connection to the server.
Check your Internet connection and your firewall.
Find out and solve other problems why MySQL-Front is not able to create a network connection
to the database server.
Read the MySQL manual: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/Can_not_connect_to_server.html
I get the error message from the database: "Access denied for user:
[email protected]" (1044). What can I do?
Please be sure to enter exactly the login information (user, password and database) you received
from your database administrator (often your ISP).
If this does not help you, please contact your ISP and ask if you are allowed to login from your
local client to the database on your account. Frequently, the ISP does not permit this. In this case,
you may be able to connect by using a HTTP Tunnel 36 or a SSH Tunnel 36 .
Additional information is listed in the MySQL manual:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/Access_denied.html
MySQL-Front reports connection problems: "Host '123.yourprovider.com' is not allowed to
connect to this MySQL server" (1130). What can I do?
Your database administrators (ISPs) permit access to the MySQL database from your local
computer due to reasons of security. This means MySQL-Front cannot access the database
normally.
This problem can be circumvented with the usage of so-called HTTP Tunnel
Tunnel 36 .

Using the Program

How can I sort the data in the Data Browser or the result of the SQL Editor?
Click on the grid header (not possible for Text / BLOB fields). If a limit is set in the Data Browser,
data are re-queried from the database or data is sorted within MySQL-Front.
How can I sort the Data Browser / SQL Editor by multiple columns?
Please use the <Ctrl+LeftClick> or <Shift+LeftClick> on the title of the column. With this, the
clicked column will be used before (<Ctrl+LeftClick>) / after (<Shift+LeftClick>) the existing
column inside the sort order.
How can I copy some records from the Data Browser / Result of the SQL Editor into the
clipboard?
Please mark the records in the data grid by <Shift+LeftClick> and <Ctrl+LeftClick>. After this you
can press <Ctrl+C> to copy the records into the clipboard.
With <Ctrl+V> you can insert the records in a data grid back.
When I press the refresh button, navigation is not actualized. Why?
The "Refresh" button updates only the right side to speed up this process.
Powered by Nils Hoyer

FAQ

36

If you want to refresh the navigator please select the View / Refresh All menu.
How can I step back after an update?
Please just install the version you want to have. This will overwrite a newer version.
Does MySQL-Front work with Wine on Linux systems?
Unfortunately Wine is still (version 1.1.9) very buggy, so you have to use original Windows DLLs
to run MySQL-Front under Wine.

6.4

HTTP Tunnel
What is a HTTP tunnel and how does it work?
Some ISPs permit access to the MySQL database only from the Web server due to reasons of
security. This means MySQL-Front cannot access the database normally (error: Access denied).
This problem can be circumvented with the use of so-called HTTP tunnel.
Install the PHP script libMySQL.php (attached with the program) on the Web server (e.g. via
FTP upload). Then select the connection type "HTTP tunnel" within the session and specify the
respective HTTP URL of this libMySQL.php script on your web server.
MySQL-Front converts the database query into an HTTP request and sends this request to the
PHP script on the Web server. (The script can access the database since it is, same as the other
scripts, located on the Web server.) The PHP script then converts the reply of the database and
sends it as the HTTP result back to MySQL-Front.
Note:
Since PHP doesn't support to use resources in sessions each single database request opens a new
database process and close them after receiving the single response. Because of this by using the
HTTP Tunnel the database is not be able to remember any session settings like transaction,
variables or something like this.

Translations
I would like to translate MySQL-Front into another language. Am I allowed to do so?
Yes, indeed you are welcome. All language files are stored in the folder:
C:\Program Files\MySQL-Front\Languages
English is the original language. Just copy this file and translate it into the language of your choice.
The program "Ini Translator", http://initranslator.sourceforge.net/ is a small but effective program
to create and edit translations.

It would be great for other users, if you would offer your specific translation together with MySQLFront. Please contact the developer of this for further informations.

Known Bugs
Are there any known bugs inside MySQL-Front?
Unfortunately yes:
Date values are supported up from the 02/Jan/0001 only.
Unsigned Bigint values are supported up to 63 bit only (values > 9223372036854775807 are not
supported).
Inside the MySQL database / tools there are some bugs which are not implemented in MySQLFront:
MySQL-Front does not support invalid date values (f. e. '00' as month or non existing day like
'2000-02-31').
The MySQL client (mysql.exe) is not able to handle CREATE PROCEDURE / CREATE
FUNCTION / CREATE TRIGGER / CREATE EVENT queries with a the delimiter ";" inside the
body. Because of this the MySQL client needs to use the work-a-round with a DELIMITER
statement. This DELIMITER statement is a statement for the MySQL client only - it's not a valid
SQL statement. MySQL-Front does not have this problem and it does not implement this worka-round with the DELIMTER statement.
The MySQL client (mysql.exe) uses the pseudo statement SET NAMES to configure the
character set communication between itself and the database. Since MySQL-Front is able to
configure this setting like a standard application this pseudo statement is not implemented
completely.
Some wrong handlings seems to be program bugs - but they are problems of handling only:
Error while importing SQL files: Please check the content of the SQL file. Maybe this SQL file is
not written for the MySQL database or not for the used MySQL database version.
