+Relying on driver name aliases in connection parameters has been deprecated. Use the actual driver names instead.

 ## Deprecated "unique" and "check" column properties.
 
 The "unique" and "check" column properties have been deprecated. Use unique constraints to define unique columns.

+For example, to connect to a "foo" MySQL database using the ``pdo_mysql``

 of the URL is, like for all other drivers, stripped of its leading
 slash, resulting in a relative file name for the database::

 This would access ``somedb.sqlite`` in the current working directory

 To specify an absolute file path, e.g. ``/usr/local/var/db.sqlite``,
 simply use that as the database name, which results in two leading
 slashes for the path part of the URL, and four slashes in total after
 the URL scheme name and its following colon::
 
-    sqlite:////usr/local/var/db.sqlite

 Which is, again, identical to supplying ignored user/pass/authority::
 
-    sqlite://notused:inthis@case//usr/local/var/db.sqlite

 To connect to an in-memory SQLite instance, use ``:memory:`` as the
 database name::
