From 3b9f88df882ee1af6fbc8ca4f299b1b229307895 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Derek Jones Date: Fri, 20 May 2011 10:25:13 -0500 Subject: modified the 'use_set_names' variable in the MySQL/i drivers to be a class property instead of static, in case multiple database servers are connected to in a single request. Also clarified description of the 'dbcollat' setting in the configuration files --- user_guide/database/configuration.html | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'user_guide') diff --git a/user_guide/database/configuration.html b/user_guide/database/configuration.html index b34705410..439717748 100644 --- a/user_guide/database/configuration.html +++ b/user_guide/database/configuration.html @@ -132,7 +132,7 @@ for the primary connection, but it too can be renamed to something more relevant
  • cache_on - TRUE/FALSE (boolean) - Whether database query caching is enabled, see also Database Caching Class.
  • cachedir - The absolute server path to your database query cache directory.
  • char_set - The character set used in communicating with the database.

  • dbcollat - The character collation used in communicating with the database.

    Note: For MySQL and MySQLi databases, this setting is only used as a backup if your server is running PHP < 5.2.3 or MySQL < 5.0.7. There is an incompatibility in PHP with mysql_real_escape_string() which can make your site vulnerable to SQL injection if you are using a multi-byte character set and are running versions lower than these. Sites using Latin-1 or UTF-8 database character set and collation are unaffected.

  • swap_pre - A default table prefix that should be swapped with dbprefix. This is useful for distributed applications where you might run manually written queries, and need the prefix to still be customizable by the end user.
  • autoinit - Whether or not to automatically connect to the database when the library loads. If set to false, the connection will take place prior to executing the first query.
  • stricton - TRUE/FALSE (boolean) - Whether to force "Strict Mode" connections, good for ensuring strict SQL while developing an application.
