Deprecated mysql_ function in PHP 5.5.x - Upgrade of Form-Tools required ? - alexboss - Feb 4th, 2015 Dear Form-Tool developers, According to http://php.net/manual/en/migration55.deprecated.php : Quote:The original MySQL extension is now deprecated, and will generate E_DEPRECATED errors when connecting to a database. Instead, use the MySQLi or PDO_MySQL extensions. A little grep on mysql_ in Form Tools returns a huge number of results which leads to the conclusion that there is no abstraction layer / PDO for the database operations. Are there any plans to add an abstraction layer / PDO to Form Tools so that it copes perfectly with PHP 5.5.x ? It might not be necessary to have drivers for numerous DBs at the moment, but at least MySQLi. What do you think? Thanks a lot and best regards, Alexandre 8) RE: Deprecated mysql_ function in PHP 5.5.x - Upgrade of Form-Tools required ? - simplescience - Aug 10th, 2015 Just a note.. need to be very careful not to force existing users beyond PHP 5.3. There are numerous users that we are aware of that could not easily do that, and upgrading would break their installations. Not that it shouldn't be done. Just that is shouldn't be done without clear and loud warnings. Just my .02.

Alexandre 8) RE: Deprecated mysql_ function in PHP 5.5.x - Upgrade of Form-Tools required ? - bill09 - Dec 9th, 2015 I was curious about this also. I have many sites using FT. Would running a tool such as: https://github.com/philip/MySQLConverterTool and making the proposed changes kill a FT installation?
