    Hi all, in my project I need to extract the total db size(kb). Im using
    Cayenne 1.2.3 and MySQL and I found the SQL command "show table status
    from <db name>" which displays a table of information about all of the
    tables in a certain db. This table has columns like "Name"(of table),
    "Data_length" and "Index_length", and apparently the best way to extract
    the size(kb) of a db is to sum the Data_length and Index_length columns
    of this table.

    Does anyone know how I can get the results of this query into java?

    Many Thanks
    Jack
