Edit Question
Title
Body
I used to have this as one of the options (4th param) passed to PDO constructor: $aOptions[PDO::MYSQL_ATTR_INIT_COMMAND] = "SET NAMES utf8"; But just found that it does not work on certain php versions on Windows (does not work in 5.3) due to some bug. Now I need to run SET NAMES utf8 using either $pdo->exec("SET NAMES utf8"); or $pdo->query("SET NAMES utf8"); right after the instantiating the pdo object. So, which one should I use - exec() or query()?
