I have just finished writing a book about PHP and PostgreSQL. After we
have finished layouting the stuff we have seen that pg_exec has changed
to pg_query for ABSOLUTELY NO USEFUL reason.
In addition to that my company has written > 1000k of PHP/PostgreSQL
code in the past and we have to port ALL applications to the new name.
This will be chaotic and I cannot see a reason for the change.
Was there no way of leaving the old name????? We will never ever use
PHP in the future again because what we have to face is a microsoft
like change destroying all books and all applications on the market.
This IS a bug for all serious companies and developers and I hope that
those who are responsible for the mess will read this message.
Best regards,
