SLiMS uses PDO or MySQLi for future? #212

It seems to SLiMS 9 Bulian are using both PDO and MySQLi? Or an abstraction DB like ADOdb?

Sometimes, I custom some codes for my library and I feel "something wrong", and I had to edit code lines , some cases it looked like PDO, and some case, it looks like MySQLi.

So, I have a question: Should I use PDO or MySQLi? (for compatble in the future when I want to upgrade current SLiMS to a newer version?). SLiMS's developers will support which?

Its up to you. Both of them is the best and written in OOP style. MySQLi has been implemented before SLiMS 9 Bulian, so its legacy feature. Yeah maybe PDO will be replacing MySQLi in future.
