Q: How do I get column names of a table?
133

A: The easiest way is to use JDBC (as described [here](https://github.com/shyiko/mysql-binlog-connector-java/issues/24#issuecomment-43747417)). Binary log itself does not contain that piece of information.

For the insight into the internals of MySQL look [here](https://dev.mysql.com/doc/internals/en/index.html). [MySQL Client/Server Protocol](http://dev.mysql.com/doc/internals/en/client-server-protocol.html) and [The Binary Log](http://dev.mysql.com/doc/internals/en/binary-log.html) sections are particularly useful as a reference documentation for the `com.**.mysql.binlog.network` and `com.**.mysql.binlog.event` packages.
