Description:
------------
Witness the following:
http://pear.php.net/manual/en/
package.database.db.db.iserror.php
How is this to be invoked?
Where is the example?
Contrast this with the following:
http://us2.php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-connect.php
...and:
http://us2.php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-error.php
PHP as a language is only as popular as it is because it
has very well-written, user-supported (and
user-supplemented) documentation. Have you programmed in
Ruby lately? I appreciate the documentation that is out
there, but I feel it is obvious that PEAR needs to
encourage more user contribution to documentation, like the
standard PHP documentation does.
