abstract public function DatabaseConnection::driver

abstract public DatabaseConnection::driver()

Returns the type of database driver.

This is not necessarily the same as the type of the database itself. For instance, there could be two MySQL drivers, mysql and mysql_mock. This function would return different values for each, but both would return "mysql" for databaseType().
