mysql-continued
===============

[](#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.

limitations
-----------

[](#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

conflicts
---------

[](#conflicts)

The code creates a global variable '$mysc\_obj' that could conflict with your existing code.
