Is PDO incompatible with caching mechanismes like APC?

[Gilles Ganault]

Hi

APC doesn't like it when I store the output of a SELECT:

===
include("apc.ph p");

$dbh = new PDO("sqlite:./test.sqlite");

$sql = "CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS mytable (name TEXT)";
$dbh->exec($sql);

$sql = "INSERT INTO mytable VALUES (?)";
$insert = $dbh->prepare($sql );
$insert->execute(array( "dead"));

$sql = "INSERT INTO mytable VALUES (?)";
$insert = $dbh->prepare($sql );
$insert->execute(array( "beef"));

$sql = "SELECT * FROM mytable";
store("rows",$d bh->query($sql)) ;

$rows = fetch("rows");
foreach($rows as $row) {
print $row['name'] . "<p>";
}

$dbh = null;
===
PHP Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'PDOException' with message 'You
cannot serialize or unserialize PDOStatement instances' in
/usr/local/www/apache22/data/apc.php:9\nStac k trace:\n#0 [internal
function]: PDOStatement->__sleep()\n# 1

Object(PDOState ment))\n#3 {main}\n thrown in
/usr/local/www/apache22/data/apc.php on line 9
===

Does it mean that PDO won't work with APC, and I should look at
another caching tool?

Thank you.

Thanks for the tip. This code works:

$sql = "SELECT * FROM mytable";
$sth = $dbh->prepare($sql );
$sth->execute();
store("rows",$s th->fetchAll());

$rows = fetch("rows");
foreach($rows as $row) {
print $row['name'] . "<p>";
}

It works, but according to "ab", it's much slower to use APC than
hitting the SQLite file directly :-/

Does APC start making sense with a lot more users, or is SQLite just
much faster than MySQL?
