ADODB database abstraction layer.

ADODB database abstraction layer.
http://woolie.co.uk/archives/81
Since the introduction of the object model in PHP4 and the subsequent re-write in PHP5, I have always created my own abstraction classes and have found them very useful for things such as error handling. While looking around one day, I came across a list of abstraction libraries already created. After trying many of them and benchmarking a few of the top ones (ADODB, PEAR:DB, Metabase etc.) I have settled on ADODB. I however don’t use ADODB for its portability to other databases. This is a common misconception that users are given about (DALs) database abstraction layers. Switching from one database to another will never be an easy task, mainly because of a few SQL commands that are unique to each DBMS. One could argue that developers should never use non-standard SQL anyway, but that’s for another time.
