使用mysql_函数与mysql连接？

Question

I have written some code that is using mysqli_ a lot. The problem is that I now need to integrate this code with code that is using mysql_, and takes care of connection, authentication etc. I don't want to create a second connection, but mysql_ lacks a few features, for example, prepared queries. So I'd like to somehow magically "import" the connection into mysqli. Is this even possible? If so, how can that be done?

As F4r-20 pointed out, you could just change the way you connect to the database and replace the mysql_ functions with msqli_ ones!

Try to decide what you are going to use BEFORE you start a project, not in the middle. Preparing saves a lot of time and issues like this.

PS. I would use PDO next time. It is easy, fast, OOP and supports multiple database types!

Edit: since you don't have access to the credentials or how you connect to the database, you will have to use mysql_, change the connection to mysqli_ or make a new connection... Sorry :(
