Bug description: Ease of migrating from mSQL to MySQL
Changing my PHP user authentication program from MySQL to mSQL was easy - a simple perl script:
s/mysql/msql/g;
changed almost every MySQL function into its mSQL counterpart - except for two changes I had to make
manually
mysql_field_name --> msql_fieldname
mysql_field_len --> msql_fieldlen
For compatibility, would you consider making "msql_field_name" and
"msql_field_len" functions? (I don't know if those are the only two functions whose
mSQL/MySQL names do not follow the same naming convention - they're the only two I found
though).
Just a (low-priority) thought.
