I did not miss it - I do not see what it means. Either we support both -
and then for the matter of development and testing nothing changes - or
something changes, namely "we remove one moving piece out of the test
equation", the moving piece being libmysql - and "remove" means
"remove". I just don't see how you can have both of these things at the
same time.
the problem is that libmysql breaks, maybe more often than mysqlnd does.
We rarely find bugs in mysqli, there are two codepaths in mysqli. If
there is a bug in libmysql, what do you want:
- SKIP, because either libmysql or the server is buggy, but many tests
do skip and does anyone read the skip messages? But your environment is
buggy, which means that your application will possibly FAIL. Instead of
finding, that your environment is _broken_ you will skip this
information. Good luck finding later that you hit a bug, which other
knew about but you did not get that info, because of SKIP
- FAIL, and one does look at the failures. You might then notice that
your libmysql and/or server is buggy. You might do something, check for
existing bug, see if it is fixed and possible update or at least you can
try to assess what the impact on you it will have.
Best,
Andrey
