I want a one click database backup. backup can be saved as .sql or .zip or .txt file in a folder which I define.

my program runs in localhost(windows/xampp). how can I do this? — Imrul.H, Dec 28 '11 at 11:39
Click? Why do you want to have to click? If you're backing up - which is good - you want to do it regularly so automate it. — Ben, Dec 28 '11 at 11:40

I did the same thing in my C# app and started a console call of mysqldump like this:

mysqldump -u username --password=yourpass db_name > outputfile.sql
