Re: [fw-db] Re: Something fishy with adapters in Zend_Db

We have not tried to produce a PDO_Informix adapter to my knowledge, as
the demand in the past has not been high at all.

After producing a working adapter, you might want to try to see if the
unit tests will run on the adapter. I've done this with Pdo_Odbc (with
unixODBC) and realized there are too many features missing in unixODBC,
and too many failing unit tests to include it in the framework.

Overall, I am not sure what the demand is for an Informix adapter, it
would be interesting to find out though :)
