Heads up: XP Framework and MySQL

at 2011-01-16 in DatabasesAnnouncements by friebe (0 comments)

MySQL LogoThe XP Framework's native MySQL driver, rdbms.mysqlx.MySqlxConnection has been committed to SVN head and will now snap into place in two cases:

  • When no MySQL driver is loaded in PHP, that is, neither ext/mysql nor ext/mysqli is available
  • ...and, maybe more surprisingly, when the mysqlnd extension is in use. This means basically any Windows installation with PHP 5.3+ will use our userland driver to speak to MySQL servers.

The reasoning behind the second is that mysqlnd has severe problems, not being able to connect to any of MySQL 4.1+ using the old authentication, MySQL 3.x or MySQL 4.0 servers.
