i dont know; i think using an instance of dbaccess to control a single
instance of the
mysqli class is appropriate. personally, i wouldnt extend mysqli unless i
had a good
reason to. i would probly only rationalize this if i wanted to override
some of the behavior
in a specific way, or extend it in some meaningful way (even then i might
use composition).
if that isnt the intention i think composition is the best choice for the
singleton.
more a matter of preference than anything i suppose. at least i cant think
of a better reason
to argue for composition.
no idea what you mean
ya; some of these posts from you are a little hard to understand, julian.

I still don't understand the obsession of a singleton in regards to a
db connection. Using a registry is a much better practice I think.
I think I alluded to the registry pattern in my reply above - although I'm not
sure. could you care to ellaborate what you mean by registry?
