Aha, I like when an internals guy teach me internals stuff :) So, OK for 5.3 , what about supporting that for >=5.4 ? > > The other reason is that one idea for mysqlnd was that it doesn't expose > anything to the userland while ext/mysql is legacy and get's no > additions and PDO would allow user-defined functions,while that's not > really nice. That was my first question : Is it better to provide mysqlnd API through all 3 MySQL extensions, or through a common mysqlnd_***() API ? I understand your thoughts, but I disagree as I think it would be much more clean to expose it via mysqlnd_***() API than through each MySQL ext (and for PDO that would be even more dirty). That would as well add more and more #ifdef MYSQLND inside their source... I was thinking the same way libxml2 API is provided inside ext/libxml instead of through each PHP XML extension API. > >> What if I choose to only compile pdo_mysql (against mysqlnd) and not >> mysqli ??

More and more people use pdo_mysql and could be able to not compile other MySQL extensions (I got some machines where only pdo_mysql is compiled in) > >> Second, I would suggest to add a function that would reset the global >> stat counter.

More, I'm gonna work on a patch to feed the bug report with ;-) Stats are not the hardest part of ext/mysqlnd :) Julien.P -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
