The question is also how much sense it makes. The main problem is the dependency loading mechanism, which does not exist. That's the main why PDO and MySqlnd can't be compiled as shared (or should not). If I configure PHP without any mysql extension, does that mean that I will never add one? I'm not sure but if we disable PDO and mysqlnd when no driver are enabled at compile time, it means that I will have to recompile PHP as soon as I like to use a pdo or mysqlnd driver. I will let the RM decides :-D Cheers, -- Pierre http://blog.thepimp.net | http://www.libgd.org -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
