NAME

edb_populate.pl - benchmarks insertion of ECD data into database

SYNOPSIS

syntax

edb_populate.pl [OPTION]... [FILE]...

DESCRIPTION

this is a general overview of what I do

OPTIONS

--database dbname

defaults to 'embedix' if none is given

--log filename

defaults to STDOUT

--errorlog filename

defaults to STDERR. I recommend specifying at least this one, because the output looks bad if mixed in on a tty w/ the normal --log output.

--distro name_of_distribution

defaults to "Embedix 1.2" This is where the name of the distribution you're working with should be specified.

--board hardware

defaults to "generic". This is where the name of the platform you're working with should be specified. (ex. 'ppc', 'mpc8260adsp', 'sh4', 'i386');

--sizelimit bytes

This will reject an ECD if it is greater than the specified amount of bytes. Until I make myself a faster parser, I need this for practical reasons.

REQUIRES

a lot of modules, the most important of which is Embedix::DB::Pg
