 <p class="simpara">The constants below are defined by
this driver, and will only be available when the extension has been either
compiled into PHP or dynamically loaded at runtime. In addition, these
driver-specific constants should only be used if you are using this driver.
Using driver-specific attributes with another driver may result in
unexpected behaviour. <span class="function"><a href="pdo.getattribute.php" class="function">PDO::getAttribute()</a></span> may be used to
obtain the <strong><code><a href="pdo.constants.php#pdo.constants.attr-driver-name">PDO::ATTR_DRIVER_NAME</a></code></strong> attribute to check the
driver, if your code can run against multiple drivers.</p>
