* Fixed the "make install" rule so it doesn't temporarily break the
installed scripts.
* implemented prepare/execute emulation for MySQL including file-reference
parameters (only binmode/binfetchlen remains now)
* started fixing up the ODBC backend
- added support for externally built modules,
- improved support for in-tree shared modules,
- fixed diversion bugs,
- configure displays some informative messages,
- faster static build
(libtool isn't used anymore for compiling non-PIC objects),
- dependencies comparable to automake's without requiring GNU make or GCC,
- working make clean for non-GNU makes.
- Defined DB_ERROR_NOSUCHTABLE and DB_ERROR_NOSUCHFIELD
- Renamed DB_common::capableOf to DB_common::provides
- Cleaned up the error code mapping
- Added simpleQuery method in DB_mysql
- Changed getXxx methods in DB_common to use simpleQuery
- Fixed bug in DB_common::getAssoc
Folded up the methods in DB.php.
Started adding documentation for DB_result methods.
Added doOne() doRow() and doAssoc() methods in DB_common.
Added numCols() to DB_mysql.
Fix warnings compiling in maintainer mode.
Install DB/common.php and DB/mysql.php on "make install".
# We still have a warning from http_config.h:97. Rasmus? :-)
@Made mysql and gd work as shared extensions again (Stig)
- Fixed some warnings in maintainer-mode.
- Made mysql and gd work as shared extensions again by defining
COMPILE_DL if PIC is defined.
# We need a better solution for building .so extensions than this
# PIC/COMPILE_DL hack!
- Added DB_ERROR_NODBSELECTED
- Added DB::connect($dsn[, $persistent] which creates a DB object and connects
$dsn is a "data source name" in a format specific to DB:
phptype(dbsyntax)://username:password@protocol+hostspec/database
Don't worry, such a dsn can be as short as "mysql"
- Added mysql support
Introduced PECL - PHP Extension and Code Library (prounounced "picke"), in
the "pecl" subdir. "make install" will now install the database abstraction
layer in PREFIX/lib/php.
I hereby dedicate this part of PHP to my daughter-of-yesterday Malin. :-)
