End of MySQL? Begin of MySQLi? - Dzines4SAMP - 18.05.2013

Well, I was just Skyping my friends, and then suddenly I get news that the newly released PHP version 5.5 stopped supporting for MySQL, instead is supporting for the new 'MySQL', called as MySQLi, and PDO (PHP Data Objects)

I think this is showing something which depicts the end of MySQL, and the birth of MySQLi to the world. PDO's with OOP, but I have no idea. The only question I'm facing now is that, will SA-MP's PHP apps need to be converted to work with PHP 5.5, basically converting everything into MySQLi.

Lets say good bye to MySQL, and hi to MySQLi!

I think you don't understand what this MySQLi is.

What the rest is trying to say; nothing has to be changed in PAWN. Very little has to be changed in your PHP scripts. (and old script still work, they might give a deprecated warning though).
