Issue status update for http://drupal.org/node/24264 Project: Drupal Version: 4.6.1 Component: base system Category: feature requests Priority: critical Assigned to: Anonymous Reported by: nsk Updated by: Thox -Status: active +Status: patch Attachment: http://drupal.org/files/issues/database.mysqli.inc (5.9 KB) Just one file for the /includes/ folder. I've tested this on my local machine and it seems that everything is working fine (I didn't do much, add / delete one node, saved admin settings). Important: I've removed the "CLIENT_FOUND_ROWS" part, as mysqli connects differently. I don't know how essential this is/was and whether it will affect anything like paging? Thox Previous comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ June 3, 2005 - 21:59 : nsk I have asked this before but no reply, so could someone have a look at it? I noticed Drupal 4.6.1 does not support MySQLi, the new MySQL client of PHP 5. It only supports the old deprecated MySQL client. Are you planning adding MySQLi support in future Drupal versions? I have already written some abstraction functions that dynamically detect which client is installed, and it's GPL. Perhaps you could take some of my code for a MySQLi-enabled Drupal version. In general it is very very easy to enable MySQLi support, I give an example here: http://jnana.wikinerds.org/index.php/MySQLi PEAR also supports MySQLi.
