Here I'm talking about adding support for tokyo cabinets as a dba handler, not a complete interface to the multiple tokyo cabinet APIs.
Are you sure you want to add it to ext/dba? dba is .. well.. dead, and it sound like a complete waste of time.

There is an item on the wishlist for PHP 6.0 about refactoring ext/dba to use PDO-style drivers. I intend to investigate this, unless someone else wants to. In addition, I wrote a patch for Tokyo Cabinet support for ext/dba a while back, which Scott applied to PHP6 - I was rather hoping it'd end up in 5.3.x at some point, but he's been too busy. I'll dig out the patch if anyone here wants it, I haven't karma to apply it. -- Cheers, Michael
