mysqldbexport --exclude option not working with (no replies)

Hi,

I am trying to export the data from a subset of my tables into individual csv files. I would like to exclude all tables beginning with batch (e.g. batch_execution, batch_job etc).

I am using the following from command line:

mysqldbexport --exclude="batch%" --server=myhost:3306 --export=data --file-per-table --format=csv --no-headers --locking=snapshot mydb

This does not however exclude the tables starting with "batch"

I tried several values with the –exclude / -x options
e.g.

--exclude=b%
--exclude=mydb.b%
--exclude=b%
--exclude=B%
--exclude=batch_execution
-x b%
-x BATCH%

etc.

Can anyone suggest what I'm doing wrong here?

Thanks,

Eoin.
