## #7717 — Adam Maccabee Trachtenberg — 2004-02-10T22:26:13+00:00

I am having all sorts of problems testing the mysqli extension. Some
of the functions work fine, but lots of others (mysqli_bind_output())
aren't.

Just to make sure I wasn't crazy, I just rebuilt PHP from the CVS and
ran the test script. Only 22/60 mysqli unit tests actually pass.

Is this normal or is mysqli still experimental?

I'm using Mac OS X and 5.0.0-alpha-standard. Should I switch to 4.1
instead? I'd prefer not to have 3 copies of MySQL (4.0, 4.1, and 5.0)
on my laptop, but I can do it if need be.
