Not a bug, solution is given, documentation "flaw" discussed.

For example with an example inside the mysqli_init() or
mysqli_options() function docs:
class mysqli2 extends mysqli
{
public function __construct( $host, $user, $pass, $db )
{
parent::init();
parent::options( MYSQLI_OPT_CONNECT_TIMEOUT, 5 );
parent::real_connect( $host, $user, $pass, $db );
}
}
Regards.

Give me a hint, what's up with the documentation?
http://us2.php.net/mysqli_connect shows that calling constructor of the
mysqli class is equal to calling mysqli_connect(). As you know, you need
to call mysqli_options() before a connection has been established. In
your reproduceable code you suggest a derived class which explicitly
calls the parent constructor to create a connection. Once the parent
constructor has been called you try to call mysqli_options()
(mysqli::options()). That's too late.
Your second example gets it right. How could we improve the
documentation? Thanks!

Hi, I've found a solution for this problem. It can be solved with:
class mysqli2 extends mysqli
{
public function __construct( $host, $user, $pass, $db )
{
$this->init();
$this->options(MYSQLI_OPT_CONNECT_TIMEOUT, 5);
$this->real_connect( $host, $user, $pass, $db );
}
}
But you may consider review your docs, because it's and undocumented
feature!

Sorry, the error message was:
'Couldn't fetch mysqli2'
