Error when using charset utf-8

When I use the function mysql_set_charset('utf8'); I have this error :

Warning: mysql_set_charset() expects parameter 2 to be resource, object given in D:\wamp\www\plateforme\includes\db.php on line 4

This is the code :

<?php

$db = new PDO('mysql:host=localhost;dbname=plateforme', 'root', '');
$db->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_WARNING); 
mysql_set_charset('utf8',$db);

?>

You are mixing mysql_* and PDO , Set the character encoding like this to your existing connection object and remove that mysql_set_charset('utf8',$db); ..

$db = new PDO('mysql:host=localhost;dbname=plateforme;charset=utf8', 'root', '');
                                                      ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ //<--- This.
