Req #55643 [NEW]: List possible pitfalls when switching from libmysql to mysqlnd

From: uw Operating system: PHP version: 5.4SVN-2011-09-08 (SVN) Package: Documentation problem Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description:List possible pitfalls when switching from libmysql to mysqlnd Description: ------------ As of PHP 5.4 the mysql, mysqli and PDO_MySQL will use mysqlnd instead of libmysql if use of libmysql is not explicitly requested when compiling PHP. libmysql comes with compression and SSL support by default. mysqlnd is using PHP infrastructure and depends on --with-openssl for SSL support and --with-zlib for compression support, see also: https://wiki.php.net/doc/todo/mysqlnd_vs_libmysql?&#feature_and_extension_dependencies People need to be educated about this. (Will ask Philip Olson to handle this bug as a member of the MySQL documentation team) -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=55643&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55643&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55643&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55643&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55643&r=fixed Fixed in SVN and need be documented: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55643&r=needdocs Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55643&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55643&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55643&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55643&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55643&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55643&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55643&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55643&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55643&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55643&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55643&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55643&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55643&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55643&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55643&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55643&r=mysqlcfg
