MySQL Query Explainer
About the MySQL Query Explainer
MySQL Query Explainer is a Java-based (and therefore cross-platform) GUI interface for MySQL's EXPLAIN
command. It was created because MySQL's own GUI toolkit doesn't display all of the data when explaining a query.
Query Explainer features:
- Formats input SQL and parsed SQL automatically
- Gives full deatil of MySQL
EXPLAIN
response - Remembers DB connection information
- Self-contained -- copy to a thumb drive and take it anywhere, no installation necessary.
Requirements: Java 1.5.0 or newer (available free from Oracle)
