note 94605 added to pdo.installation

This page states "You may need to enable the PDO driver for your database of choice; consult the documentation for [database-specific PDO drivers] to find out more about that." With the term "database-specific PDO drivers" being a link to this information. However you will no find this information on that or any of the pages that it in turn links to. The appropriate config options seems to be only available by running ./config --help from the source directory after running autoconf. Here is the related output from running that command: ===================== --with-pdo-dblib[=DIR] PDO: DBLIB-DB support. DIR is the FreeTDS home directory --with-pdo-firebird[=DIR] PDO: Firebird support. DIR is the Firebird base install directory [/opt/firebird] --with-pdo-mysql[=DIR] PDO: MySQL support. DIR is the MySQL base directoy If mysqlnd is passed as DIR, the MySQL native native driver will be used [/usr/local] --with-zlib-dir[=DIR] PDO_MySQL: Set the path to libz install prefix --with-pdo-oci[=DIR] PDO: Oracle OCI support. DIR defaults to $ORACLE_HOME. Use --with-pdo-oci=instantclient,prefix,version for an Oracle Instant Client SDK. For Linux with 10.2.0.3 RPMs (for example) use: --with-pdo-oci=instantclient,/usr,10.2.0.3 --with-pdo-odbc=flavour,dir PDO: Support for 'flavour' ODBC driver. include and lib dirs are looked for under 'dir'. 'flavour' can be one of: ibm-db2, iODBC, unixODBC, generic If ',dir' part is omitted, default for the flavour you have selected will used. e.g.: --with-pdo-odbc=unixODBC will check for unixODBC under /usr/local. You may attempt to use an otherwise unsupported driver using the "generic" flavour. The syntax for generic ODBC support is: --with-pdo-odbc=generic,dir,libname,ldflags,cflags When build as shared the extension filename is always pdo_odbc.so --with-pdo-pgsql[=DIR] PDO: PostgreSQL support. DIR is the PostgreSQL base install directory or the path to pg_config --without-pdo-sqlite[=DIR] PDO: sqlite 3 support. DIR is the sqlite base install directory [BUNDLED] ===================== So if you wish for instance to install the PostgreSQL PDO driver, then you should add the --with-pdo-pgsql config option before compiling PHP. I may have made mistakes in my explination, however it appears to work and was my best guess given the absence of the mentioned documentation. ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 124.169.21.171 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/pdo.installation.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/94605 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/94605/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/94605/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/94605/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/94605/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/94605/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/94605/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/94605 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/94605 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
