Eclipse
Hi experts.
Im looking for a plug-in for eclipse that will keep my local machine Database in sync with the production server.
In the same way that 'ftp webdav' keeps the files in sync with the files on the server i want a plug-in that will allow me to download the latest that is on the mysql database to my local server.
Cheers

hi,
I had a look through a couple of plugin sites but the problem is im not exactly sure what im looking for.
is it:
"FTP database synchronizer"
"local and web server synchronizer"
"mysql updater"
there were quite a few plugins to do with databases but im happy with the 'quantum db' plugin that im currently using.
I only wish that it had the feature to:
"download and synchronize with server"
so that when alterations are done to the web server like a new column added or table created, that my local copy could be kept in sync.
Ever heard of a plugin that does this? Or a way to make quantum db do this.
(The alternative which i am doing now is, occasionally download the whole database and install it manually. But since this is an effort it doesn't get done much.)
cheers

Hi,
Sorry for the late reply.
zzynx, that program does look great and able to do much more than im looking for. I just wanted to do a simple total update but that program allows you to choose on a difference by difference level what to update. It is cool, but overkill for me (and it is not an eclipse plugin).
Ajay-Singh, Thanks, that is what i am using right now. I do a database export from phpmyadmin then use mysql from the DOS prompt to update the database. Using eclipse makes me lazy and the ftp plugin does such a great job of keeping the server the same as the local that i was hoping that there might be a way that was just as easy to keep the database up to date.
maybe what im looking for is not available.
cheers
