mysqldump --ignore-table

[zia mohaddes]

Dear all,

I am currently trying to figure-out how I could ignore multiple tables in
mysql using a simple a regex. For example I have multiple tables which have
the following structure: mytable1, mytable2, ..........,mytable100. And I
would like these tables to be ignore when doing mysqldump by doing something
like this:
mysqldump --ignore-table = mydb.table*

 I am wondering if there is any way do something like this in mysql!


Thank you kindly for the help,
regards,
daniel
