How to check database driver name - El Forum - 08-18-2010

I am writing a library and I would like to know which database project is using
there is a small difference if it is MySQL or PostgreSQL...
Is it a field or method what will return database driver name like
$this->db->driver_name ()
what will return 'mysql' or 'postgre' according to what $this->db is driving on ?

I think $this->db->dbdriver contains the name.
Code:
// this is the start of the mysql driver file; it extends CI_DB that ends up in $this->db.
class CI_DB_mysql_driver extends CI_DB {
var $dbdriver = 'mysql';How to check database driver name - El Forum - 08-18-2010
