chantown Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 If we're developing a content management system, would it be better to use mysqlI or mdb2? What is the advantages/disadvantages of both? Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/69261-mysqli-or-mdb2/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
btherl Posted September 14, 2007 Share Posted September 14, 2007 mdb2 is an abstraction layer, meaning the same code will be more easily ported to other databases. Mysqli is an interface directly to mysql only, so porting will be more difficult. There's probably more mysql specific features in mysqli too.. that's a rule of thumb when it comes to abstraction.

chantown Posted September 14, 2007 Author Share Posted September 14, 2007 So if we're just using MySQL for life , it'd be more more flexible and easier to use MysqlI?

Jessica Posted September 14, 2007 Share Posted September 14, 2007 You could use ADODB, that is a nice one. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/69261-mysqli-or-mdb2/#findComment-348051 Share on other sites More sharing options...
