Using Databases in Applications

Applications compiled with ExeOutput for PHP can work with databases thanks to PHP and its set of extensions such as MySQL, SQLite, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, and so on.

Since MySQL is the most used database software with PHP projects, ExeOutput for PHP can include a portable MySQL server (MariaDB) with your PHP application and start/stop it automatically when your application is started/stopped.

Tip

Please refer to the Databases topic of the General Demonstration for demonstrations and more explanations about integrating databases with your ExeOutput for PHP apps.

Warning

Database support requires the corresponding PHP extension to be enabled: go to the "PHP Settings -> PHP Extensions" page in ExeOutput for PHP.
