Zitat von Lukas Smith <lsmith@php.net>:
I aked about what to do with the differences between the MDB2 and PDO API a while back and the only feedback I got was "go with the PDO API". It does seem like the sensible choice. However I just cant motivate myself to move over to the PDO API, which imho is very user unfriendly. Maybe someone else wants to take up this task. I am willing to hand over lead of MDB2 to that person. I will help with questions about MDB2 of course and I will help maintain the drivers. I just cant force myself to spend any time on turning the MDB2 API into something I dont believe in.
FWIW, I think you should go the route which ever fits you best personally, if there is so little feedback. It's your package, so you have the final call. If all people screamed for a PDO compatible API, that would be a different story, but they didn't. So I would stick with the API that makes most sense in your eyes.
Well the thing is I agree that its pointless to try and push my MDB2 API, while the PDO API is what is shipped with PHP by default. its just that I lack the motivation to do this myself, since I put so much thought into the current API. regards, Lukas
