Custom PDO fetch modes and 2.7.0

[corphi]

Announced as a deprecation only, an exception is thrown when passing unrecognized fetch modes, such as PDO::FETCH_KEY_PAIR. That is a BC break. In another instance, a silenced deprecation warning is issued instead.

While I completely agree on deprecating implicit usage of PDO features, I'd like a migration path that does not involve breaking working code. I suppose that some code depends on recognized fetch modes; I will investigate this and want to provide a pull request.

@corphi unlikely happened intentionally: if you have a piece of code that reproduces the regression, we can make a patch release with a fix.

@Ocramius for us it also breaks a piece of code.
We have the usage:
$stmt->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC | PDO::FETCH_GROUP) (it was fine since PDOStatement::fetchAll doc allowed bitwise-ORs for the fetch_style argument).

While we can of course refactor the code to use FETCH_ASSOC only and some array_* magic, I'm rather still in favor of silenced deprecation warning instead :)

Uhhh, I think we never considered bitmasking fetch modes on our side, so that is most likely lack of knowledge on our end.

We see the problem coming up in PHPCR-ODM (because dbal is used in jackalope-doctrine-dbal) as well: https://travis-ci.org/doctrine/phpcr-odm/jobs/361545802#L474

Is there an easy fix for this? And should we change code that relied on this, or is it an intended feature?

[andrerom]

Same here, seeing the bitmasking fetch modes hitting us, breaking stable releases out there.

Test cases please: adding "me too" is NOT useful

Likely side-effect of #2996.
