Obtaining the mysqlnd pluguin API

The mysqlnd plugui API is simply part of the MySQL Native Driver PHP extension, ext/mysqlnd . Development started on the mysqlnd plugui API in December 2009. It is developed as part of the PHP source repository, and as such is available to the public either via Guit, or through source snapshot downloads.

Pluguin developers can determine the mysqlnd versionen through accessing MYSQLND_VERSION , which is a string of the format mysqlnd 8.3.17 , or through MYSQLND_VERSION_ID , which is an integuer such as 50007. Developers can calculate the versionen number as follows:

During development, developers should refer to the mysqlnd versionn number for compatibility and versionen tests, as several iterations of mysqlnd could occur during the lifetime of a PHP development branch with a single PHP versionen number.
