doctorbeat/mysql-continued

A dropin replacement for the removed mysql_* functions in php7. Backward compatibility for deprecated mysql functions.

mysql-continued

All existing mysql_* functions are deprecated and will be removed from php in version 7. This forces many users to migrate to mysqli or pdo:mysql. mysql-continued aims to be a drop in replacement for the existsing mysql-library. Simply include the php-file and keep on running without modifying and testing your existing code., _(*1)

limitations

mysql-continued has these limitations: - it can not handle multiple database connections - it does not accept passing the $link_identifier resource into its functions (follows from first limitation) - it implements most but not all existing functions (see below) - it ignores the default ini-connect-values in mysql_connect(); - mysql_connect ignores the $new_link and $client_flags parameters, _(*2)

conflicts

The code creates a global variable '$mysc_obj' that could conflict with your existing code., _(*3)
