DB wrappers

Post by BDKR »

I've been doing some work and experimenting relating to db abstraction and just thought I'd ask this question.

I'm also curious what methods or functions are most often used when dealing with a database. I have my ideas along these lines, but I thought I'd ask.

Cheers,

Doesn't PEAR have a DB-abstraction module?

The biggest problem really isnt the abstraction interface itself, it is that ANSI-92 isnt always usable everywhere and doesnt always work with everything, so I find myself sometimes creating separate functions/files to return slightly different queries for MySQL and for PostGreSQL, and especially for ODBC/MS-Access which is just retarded...
