I have the following code:
<?php
require_once( 'DB.php' );
$dsn = 'mysql://user:password@localhost/table';
$dbh = new DB();
$dbh->connect( $dsn );
if ( $dbh->isError( $dbh )) die ( $dbh->getMessage );
$query = "SELECT * FROM Table ORDER BY Date LIMIT 1";
$sth = $dbh->query( $query );
?>
I get:
PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined method DB::query()
Can somebody tell me where I am going wrong? This all worked using my old code, but I got a lot of warnings about non static methods being called statically:
$dbh = DB::connect( $dsn );
if ( DB::isError( $dbh )) die ( $dbh->getMessage );
$sth = $dbh->query( $query );

Apparently DB::connect() doesn't return an instance of the DB class. So
instead of
$dbh->connect( $dsn );
you have to call
$dbh = $dbh->connect( $dsn );
But probably it's better to stick with your old code, and declare static
methods as such in the DB class:
public static function connect($dsn) {...}

That seems to work. I still get messages like this:
PHP Strict Standards: Non-static method DB::isError() should not be called statically, assuming $this from incompatible context in /usr/share/php/DB/common.php on line 1217, referer: http://blah ..

Where do I declare this? Is it in my code or in DB.php?

OK, it used to work but doesn't now. What changed?
You do have some problems in your code. For instance, you are not
saving the object returned by the connect() method. You can find an
example at
http://pear.php.net/manual/en/package.database.db.intro-query.php for
the proper way to do a query. Also, the fact you had warnings earlier
should have been a red flag. They are there for a reason.
However, beware that the PEAR DB package has been replaced by the PEAR
MDB2 package. The former is no longer being maintained and should not
be used.
Rather, I recommend you use a the PHP PDO class. It will require some
rewriting of your code, but you're going to have to do that anyway.
BTW - it's almost never a good idea to modify the code in packages. It
always leads to more work in the long run as you have to maintain the
modified code as well as your own.
