PHPRunner General questions

Hi,
From everything I've read, MySQLi is the preferred method to use but I noticed that PHPRunner uses MySQL. I did read a post from version 4.1 that MySQLi would be available in the "next release". Is this available in version 5.2? I wasn't able to find anything in the manual.
Thanks
Al

There is no direct benefit from PHPRunner of using MySQLi vs MySQL. We will switch eventually.
Here is a good read on MySQL/MySQLi differences:
