Any language can process the output of mdb-schema to create SQL. It is just text in, text out, after all. Using one tool might allow you more flexibility, like a continuous flow without intermediate files and even parallel processing.
It looks like you are doing a schema migration. Think of it as a text process, generating an SQL script, which you can inspect as you develop, and then when it is stable and tested, you can pipe it right into the new db tool.
You might consider either perl or JAVA, because you can open connections to both DB and move the information in one process without using their clients.

NAME
mdb-schema - Generate schema creation DDL
SYNOPSIS
mdb-schema [options] database [backend]
DESCRIPTION
mdb-schema is a utility program distributed with MDB Tools.
It produces DDL (data definition language) output for the given database. This can be passed to another database to create a replica of the
original access table format.
OPTIONS
-T <table>, --table <table>
Single table option. Create schema for this table only. Default is to export all tables.
-N namespace
Prefix identifiers with namespace.
--drop-table
Issue DROP TABLE statement.
--no-drop-table
Don't issue DROP TABLE statement. This is the default.
--not-null
Issue NOT NULL constraints. This is the default.
--no-not-null
Don't issue NOT NULL constraints.
--default-values
Issue DEFAULT values.
--no-default-values
Don't issue DEFAULT values. This is the default.
--not-empty
Issue CHECK <> '' constraints.
--no-not-empty
Don't issue CHECK <> '' constraints. This is the default.
--indexes
Export INDEXes. This is the default.
--no-indexes

--relations
Export foreign keys constraints. This is the default.
--no-relations
Don't export foreign keys constraints.
backend
Specifies target DDL dialect. Supported values are access, sybase, oracle, postgres, and mysql. If not specified the generated DDL
will be in access format.
ENVIRONMENT
MDB_JET3_CHARSET
Defines the charset of the input JET3 (access 97) file. Default is CP1252. See iconv(1).
MDBICONV
Defines the output charset to use for the SQL file. Default is UTF-8. mdbtools must have been compiled with iconv.
MDBOPTS
semi-column separated list of options:
o use_index
o no_memo
o debug_like
o debug_write
o debug_usage
o debug_ole
o debug_row
o debug_props
o debug_all is a shortcut for all debug_* options

AUTHORS
The mdb-schema utility was written by Brian Bruns and others.
BUGS
Relationships and other features may not be supported by all databases. Access datatypes are mapped to their closest counterparts in the
target backend. This may not always yield an exact fit.
