XLIV. InterBase Functions
Introduction
InterBase is a popular database put out by Borland/Inprise.
More information about InterBase is available at http://www.interbase.com/.
Oh, by the way, InterBase just joined the open source movement!
Note: Full support for InterBase 6 was added in PHP 4.0.
This database uses a single quote (') character for escaping,
a behavior similar to the Sybase database, add to your php.ini
the following directive:
magic_quotes_sybase = On
Requirements
Installation
To enable InterBase support configure PHP --with-interbase[=DIR],
where DIR is the InterBase base install directory, which
defaults to /usr/interbase.
Note to Win32 Users: In order to enable this module on
a Windows environment, you must copy gds32.dll from the
DLL folder of the PHP/Win32 binary package to the SYSTEM32
folder of your windows machine. (Ex: C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32 or
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32). In case you installed the InterBase
database server on the same machine PHP is running on, you
will have this DLL already. Therefore you don't need to
copy gds32.dll from the DLL folder.
