Pow Web, MySQL and DDL

lexisdad · 3-7-09, 03:34 PM

I am new to using MySQL at Pow Web. Does anyone know whether it is possible to create database entities (tables, indexes, etc.) at Pow Web by executing a DDL script? DDL stands for Data Definition Language (sorry if you're saying "well Duh" now about the DDL definition).

I can create the entities using the PHP admin tool, but would like to create the structures using DDL since I can version control the script and easily exactly recreate everything if necessary.

I never tried a DDL extension since XML is supported for definitions or catalogs. You can contact support for an official response or simply try it and see.
