Yes -- it's planned for the 1.4.0 release. You can access it now if you use an development version of PEAR. > Besides , i am using thepear syntax in adodb , i wonder if it will > still work with the components ie DataGrid andDB_DataObjects.

My guess is that they don't, but a developer would know for certain. There's not much benefit or point in PEAR developers developing for a non-PEAR library -- the idea is to create a set of high quality libraries following a common set of coding standards and practices; compatibility with outside libraries doesn't make sense if those libraries do not follow the same guidelines. -- Matthew Weier O'Phinney | mailto:matthew@garden.org Webmaster and IT Specialist | http://www.garden.org National Gardening Association | http://www.kidsgardening.com 802-863-5251 x156 | http://nationalgardenmonth.org
