Release 6.0.0 Changelog
Driver 'oracle' (Oracle Version 7 and lower)
This driver, which uses PHP drivers removed in PHP version 5.1, has been removed. The oci8 driver will be renamed to 'oracle' in order to provide an appropiately named data provider, and 'oci8' will become a wrapper for that driver.
Any other driver directly based on this driver will also be removed.
Driver 'mysql'
This driver, which uses the non-improved mysql PHP drivers removed in PHP 5.4, has been removed. The driver 'mysqli' will be renamed to 'mysql' in order to provide an appropriately named data provider.
The 'mysqlt' and 'mysqlpo' drivers will also be removed.
Driver 'informix' & 'informix72'
This driver, which supports early versions of Informix, will be removed. A new version, based on the pdo_ibm driver, is planned.
