[PHP-DB] Looking for a good MySQL db abstraction layer
I'm looking for a good MySQL db abstraction layer. I'm just coming back to PHP/MySQL and rather writing my own I figured I'd try to see if any are already out there. The layer should obviously have the basics, of connect, query, and close, and possibly some error checking and handling. thanks, ~ Mike -- Mike Zornek | Project Leader Apple Student Developers The Insanely Great Site with the Insanely Long URL http://www.applestudentdevelopers.org Personal Site: http://www.mikezornek.com -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Try those provided in PEAR(in the distro). Best regards, Andrey Hristov On Friday 08 March 2002 08:04 pm, you wrote: I'm looking for a good MySQL db abstraction layer.

You should probably look into PEAR. http://pear.php.net/ You probably
have the basic PEAR stuff if you did a source install of PHP.
They have a DB Abstraction class that is similar to Perl DBI and it appears
to be the way of the future.
http://pear.php.net/manual/en/core.db.php
FWIW, the author of the PHP Developers' Cookbook (Sams) did all of the
database examples using PEAR syntax.
Of course, I've not made the switch over yet so take my advice with a grain
of salt.
Hope it helps.
Sincerely,

Re: [PHP-DB] Looking for a good MySQL db abstraction layer
PEAR, Metabase, and ADODB are all good db abstraction packages with their respective merits. But if your looking for something simple, efficient, for mysql only try: http://www.phpclasses.org/browse.html/package/107.html The package contains basic connection, sql command, and recordset classes. I like it because it's easy to understand and play around with. Also has sql logging which can be switched on for debugging. Michael Zornek wrote: I'm looking for a good MySQL db abstraction layer.
