How to export a MySQL Table to a Flat File?

(JAVA free example written by Anton Zamov.)


How to export a MySQL Table to a Flat File?


The default format of a file exported from MySQL is as follows: the fields are separated by tabs, the lines terminated by 'n', and backslashes(), newlines (n), and tabs (t) escaped by a backslash. NULL is exported as N.
This example exports the data in a table called mysql_table2 to a file named outfile.txt.

try {
// Create the statement
Statement stmt = connection.createStatement();

// Export the data
String filename = "c:tempoutfile.txt";
String tablename = "mysql_2_table";
stmt.executeUpdate("SELECT * INTO OUTFILE "" + filename + "" FROM " + tablename);
} catch (SQLException e) {
}
