Guest Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Any reason for using mysql and not PDO or MySQL(i)? Also maybe fix the commenting? @return, @todo, @param ect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JakeB Posted March 31, 2013 Author Share Posted March 31, 2013 I'm not sure why zeggy didn't use mysqli when he developed it originally, but in the next release i plan to have a MySQLi class for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Ah cool. keep the mysql one though incase some people for a strange reason don't have the improved one. On install decide which to use :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aventro Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 No, don't. If people still have a version NOT supporting MySQLi it's about time upgrading, it's shameful using anything less than 5.3! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a_bertrand Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Well... Here I don't agree, not all run with "new" versions of PHP. Actually if you run on older Cent OS or old Redhat based distro you could still have PHP 5.1, so always running for the latest and greatest may cut you out of some. Yet I would say MySQLi is a must, and old MySQL is really to be avoided. But that's personal opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 True MySQLi should be used if not PDO, however as AB said not all places use > 5.3. MySQL is just a safe backup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps they do, but still I don't see a reason why to keep the development in the "back" when we can put it forward! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JakeB Posted March 31, 2013 Author Share Posted March 31, 2013 We will be keeping mysql support, we will just add a mysqli driver to the current dbfactory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet I would say MySQLi is a must, and old MySQL is really to be avoided. But that's personal opinion. Even the last CentOs major shipped with PHP 5.3.2(/3?). The industry standard is PHP 5.3.3. ext/mysql is the devils work. It's bad on so many levels, I'm not going to explain. Furthermore, procedural ext/mysqli is going to be dropped from PHP in the near future. PHP is aiming for Pdo, and rightfully so, it does have a better abstraction layer for using multiple adapters(DBMS'). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not true at all, contact your host they can normally enable certain versions for your account. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
