.. annoying top posting...
This is getting close to a good solution.
ini option mysql_is_deprecated - can not be set in .ini/htaccess etc,
only by ini_set() - so hosters/distros can not fix it...
Normally added just before mysql_connect...
ini_set('mysql_is_deprecated', "I WILL NOT USE IT IN THE FUTURE");
mysql_connect(......)
if the ini value is not set, then mysql_connect() can issue a
E_DEPRECATED warning
"Mysql is deprecated, use mysqli or PDO, to remove this warning you can
set mysql_is_deprecated"
They then have to google mysql_is_deprecated, which tells them to use
the magic string...
Solves:
- Users will get warnings on upgrading - it can not be hidden by
hosters/distros etc.
- Users can easily disable the warning, however they will be explicitly
aware of the problem.
Backwards/forward compatible....

I see it as simple to show E_DEPRECATED but not when installed from
PECL.
1) Add a
int mysql_extension_triggers_deprecated_warning = 1;
And use it as a conditional for triggering the warning.
2) Copy the extension code to PECL
3) Add these changes in PECL
- If the mysql functions are not already registered,
register them with the bundled code.
- Set mysql_extension_triggers_deprecated_warning = 0;
4) That's it.
Then people (distros, hosts, etc) will just install it from PECL
instead to avoid all the E_DEPRECATED mess.
