Based on my experiences, if you're keeping to the procedural
interface, aren't doing crazy things with default links, and not
adding in anything new, the API changes are relatively small and
self-contained.
So, I would suggest people take the minimal amount of time to migrate
through using search and replace and minor syntax updates. It solves
the speed issue and sets you up to take advantage of MySQLi-only
features.
However, if you feel the need to do this for various reasons, I would
start here:
http://old.coggeshall.org/show_source.php?filename=mysql2mysqli.php
Well, cursory testing proved successful and the general concept is
good so I moved to the next phase and made an extension based on the
script code but the added execution time defeated the purpose since
no time savings was achieved, actually it ended up being a little
slower so the only advantage was that the ext/mysqli extension could
be used without script modification.
The only way to keep the time savings would be to modify the ext/
mysqli extension which is essentially just combining ext/mysql and
ext/mysqli extensions which in itself wont provide any significant
benefits other than making the code harder to maintain.
TIme to give up and move on.
