Yes, it is described in the book "Object-Oriented Programming with PHP5", though it is pretty limited. - Matijn -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

I've been playing around with it a lot, but haven't got as comfortable with is as I was with PEAR. :-/ I started with PHP just before PHP5 was finally released, so never used PHP4, and found ADOdb very early on so have never used anything else. One gets stuck in one's way when something simply works ... Probably why I'm finding PDO such a backwards step having been spoilt by the transparent cross db support ADOdb provides. I only use Firebird in production, but pulling stuff from other data sources is a doddle nowadays. -- Lester Caine - G8HFL - Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk// Firebird - http://www.firebirdsql.org/index.php -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
