Description:
------------
Using PDO on MySQL 5.5.32 (Linux and Windows)

When executing a prepared multi-query statement after calling PDO::beginTransaction() the PDO::commit() will return true but no commit will be done.
Also the affected tables will be locked until the database server is restarted.

Nor error is raised neither exception is thrown.

My tests was within a try/catch block.

Test script:
---------------
$pdo = new PDO('mysql:dbname=PLACE_DATABASE;host=localhost;charset=utf8', 'PLACE_USER', 'PLACE_PASSWORD', array(
	PDO::ATTR_PERSISTENT => true,
	PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE => PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION,
	PDO::ATTR_DEFAULT_FETCH_MODE => PDO::FETCH_OBJ
));
try {
	$pdo->beginTransaction();
	$statement = $pdo->prepare('UPDATE ...; UPDATE ...; ');
	$statement->execute();
	$pdo->commit();
} catch (PDOException $e) {
	exit($e->getMessage());
	$pdo->rollBack();
}

Its weird but use 
$stmt = null;
and THEN fire the commit()

it works.
Created a detailed report here: https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=66621

It makes no sense to even try multi query using a prepared statement API call. Multi query is not available with PS. If at all it could be made working using query()/exec() but that would mean a security hole and was for sure out of spec for PDO (given there was a proper PDO spec)

@uw@php.net
Whats the meaning of beginTransaction() and commit() then?
Adding those functions @PDO for single queries seems not "worth" to me.
Or do you recommend to execute each query like?:
function simpleExample(){
    $dbh->beginTransaction();
      
    $stmt = $dbh->prepare("INSERT INTO ...");  
    if(!$stmt->execute()){
        $dbh->rollBack();
        return false;
    }

    $stmt = $dbh->prepare("INSERT INTO ...");  
    if(!$stmt->execute()){
        $dbh->rollBack();
        return false;
    }

    $stmt = $dbh->prepare("INSERT INTO ...");  
    if(!$stmt->execute()){
        $dbh->rollBack();
        return false;
    }

    $dbh->commit();
    return true;        
}

And whats the security hole btw?
