It is more then stable enough.

I suspect licensing. While the v3 driver was LGPL, the v4 driver 
is GPL. So either you have to pay for the commercial version or 
you can only redistribute it with GPL products (which CF is not). 
NewAtlanta has confirmed that is the reason that the MySQL v4 
driver is not in BlueDragon, and there have been other reports:

Re: CF7 MySQL question

That would be reasonable, does the 3.x in the admin in fact refer to
the driver version then rather than DB ver's supported? Might be worth
that being changed just to MySQL, it's never shown a version number
before. Just being fussy, but, people might get confused.

Hmm, OK. I saw Steven's post when it came out. I'll go back and have a
re-read. Would be nice to know why it didn't ship though.

More than likely its because the v4 J Connector driver is a work in 
progress, where as the v3 driver is now completely static.

Which reminds me - must update the Connector on my dev machine.

You have to install the v4 driver yourself, and I believe there is
already a technote on how to do so (as well as being blogged by Steven
Erat).

I'm sure someone from MM will pip in with the reasons as to why the v4
driver wasn't shipped :-)

CF7 MySQL question

2005-02-09 Thread Ian Winter
Why does in the CF7 Admin show the MySQL driver as MySQL (3.x) , does
this signify the lowest version supported or that only 3 is supported?
The later cannot be true as I'm running a 4.x db. Is there another
MySQL driver that's recommended for 4?

Cheers,
Ian
