PDO in Codeigniter

[quote author="kgill" date="1246587626"]I just hacked DB.php, basically everything between:

// Load the DB classes. Note: Since the active record class is optional

and just before the return statement I commented out and replaced with:

$DB =& new PDO($params['dbdriver'].':host='.$params['hostname'].';dbname='.$params['database'], $params['username'], $params['password']);

It's a quick and dirty hack but it got me what I wanted, $this->db gives me my PDO object.[/quote]

Thanks. I believe this is what I was looking for.

So to make a call I would then do something like
$this->db->prepare(....);
$this->db->bindParam(...);
$this->db->execute();

?

Again, sorry for being a Noob. Also, if anyone else has any other ideas on implementing PDO, I'd love to hear it.

Thanks.
