RDO MySQL Driver

This is the MySQL driver for RDO—Ruby Data Objects.

Refer to the RDO project README for full usage information.

Installation

Via rubygems:

$ gem install rdo-mysql

Or add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem "rdo-mysql"

And then execute:

$ bundle

Usage

require "rdo-mysql"

conn = RDO.connect("mysql://user:pass@localhost/db_name?encoding=utf-8")

Prepared statements

MySQL, in theory supports prepared statements. But really you would not want to use them. There are still a number of known limitations with MySQL prepared statements, as outlined here:

• http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/c-api-prepared-statement-problems.html
• http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/c-api-prepared-statement-problems.html
• http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/c-api-prepared-statement-problems.html

rdo-mysql uses RDO's emulated prepared statement support instead. If people shout loud enough that they'd prefer to use MySQL's problematic prepared statements anyway, I'll implement them.
