Stupid error in PHP 5.1beta

11th June 2005 @ 15:01 EDT

Well, if you haven't tried it already, and you're interested in PDO, don't: just grab the latest snapshot from snaps instead.

Lack of communication, and perhaps some politics, meant that 5.1beta shipped with a stupid bug in the PDO core extension, causing a infinite loop on request shutdown.

I'm somewhat annoyed at this, because it's a showstopper that we could and should have caught before announcing the beta.

Oh well, such is life.

I'm just getting stuck into packing things up ready to move into our first home in the USA (we've been living in an apartment for a few months), so I'm not going to let it bother me.

Have a good weekend.

PDO has not supported MySQL 4.1/5.0 yet?

12th June 2005 @ 04:13 EDT

I learn from http://www.php.net/pdo that PDO has not supported MySQL 4.1+ yet. Should I hope that PDO will be ready for MySQL 4.1+ when PHP 5.1 final is released?

Thanks

PDO in Win32

12th June 2005 @ 04:36 EDT

It seems that PDO is not ready for PHP 5.1 Win32 version. It can not load modules for mysql and pgsql. (snaps.php.net June 12)

Here is my config

;extension=php_msql.dll extension=php_mysql.dll extension=php_mysqli.dll ;extension=php_oci8.dll ;extension=php_openssl.dll ;extension=php_oracle.dll ;extension=php_pdf.dll extension=php_pdo.dll extension=php_pdo_mysql.dll extension=php_pdo_pgsql.dll ;extension=php_pgsql.dll

But phpinfo () return this result:
