Small parser that changes from MySQL to Firebird syntax. Currently it only supports

database structure dump (no data, only structure) from PHPMyAdmin and MySql Workbench  

Not all datatypes are supported, but feel free to "fix" it. It's written

in PHP and it's open source. 

Here is a quick overview

Make sure you test the output before using it in production. It does support some tricky 

stuff like auto increment columns and LAST_INSERT_ID. There is a 

stored procedure for this at the end of the script, you can call it 

like this:

select id from last_insert_id;

On Windows, you can run the program like this:

php.exe -f mysql2firebird.php mysql_dump.sql > firebird_dump.sql

Once you create the Firebird script, make sure you search for text 

WARNING: which might indicate some incompatibilities. For example, 

Firebird does not have tinyint, mediumint and unsigned datatypes. 

Also, check for TEXT and LONGTEXT. I’m using UTF8, so I converted 

those to varchar(8000), which might not be what you want. Maybe BLOB 

SUB_TYPE 0 would be a better choice
