ADOdb Library for PHP
=====================

[](#adodb-library-for-php)

While the ADOdb/ADOdb github repo is effectively dormant, this fork provides ongoing maintenance releases to the ADOdb package. It is designed to be backwards compatible with the upstream package while adding compatibility with later versions of PHP. If the ADOdb repo re-activates, this repo may be archived.

Introduction
============

[](#introduction)

PHP's database access functions are not standardized. This creates a need for a database class library to hide the differences between the different databases (encapsulate the differences) so we can easily switch databases.

The library currently supports MySQL, Firebird, PostgreSQL, SQLite3, Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server, DB2, PDO and generic ODBC

We hope more people will contribute drivers to support other databases.

Installation
============

[](#installation)

Unpack all the files into a directory accessible by your web server.

To test, try modifying some of the tutorial examples. Make sure you customize the connection settings correctly.

You can debug using:
