will phpBB 2.2 also support MySQLi

[sparkster]

I'd suggest using the function calls would be easier based from phpBB's implementation but you could extend the mysqli object and just use that as the $db variable maybe if you did it right.

What? How could you not use the $db variable? lmao, you'd have to rewrite every single query....


Anyway, in the install.php script, mysqli is linked to the mysql4.php file; this could be a mistake or bug however.

MySQLi is the way to go with MySQL 4.1.x and since 4.1 is stable I think this is a rather urgent requirement to support this...

If you need a Mysqli layer i can wipe an unoffical up for you.

Just post if you need it.

hey, sorry to go bumping things, but i could be doing with this. it's rather unsafe having to run with no password, dontcha think?

Note that coders of phpBB make their own code and will not borrow any of outside code, it's the same for MODs they do NOT use code of any mods but instead write it their own way.

Oh?

Code: Select all

--- 162,166 ----
  	// Determine the Browser the User is using, because of some nasty incompatibilities.
  	// borrowed from phpMyAdmin. :)
! 	$user_agent = (!empty($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'])) ? $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'] : '';
  
  	if (ereg('Opera(/| )([0-9].[0-9]{1,2})', $user_agent, $log_version))

But seriously, I know what ya mean
