Please read the various links that I posted in the announcement; they explain a number of design goals about PDO (particularly the OTN article) that will answer your questions in more detail.

Not into Oracle ;) , but it answers the main questions. PDO is not planned to be a replacement for ADOdb.

No. That is something for another layer. PDO is intended to be a very light layer with minimal interference.

Until all engines can use the same SQL there is little point in a generic layer that means you have to re-engineer the queries when ever you switch engines ? Unless it is very much faster than the existing drivers, in which case I'd switch the Firebird ADOdb driver to use it :) So I'm looking at a different level of the Abstraction Model. It's bad enough catering for the differences AFTER ADOdb has taken off the rough spots ;) -- Lester Caine ----------------------------- L.S.Caine Electronic Services
