ibase_pconnect
(PHP 3>= 3.0.6, PHP 4, PHP 5)ibase_pconnect -- Open a persistent connection to an InterBase database
Description
resource ibase_pconnect ([string database [, string username [, string password [, string charset [, int buffers [, int dialect [, string role [, int sync]]]]]]]])ibase_pconnect() acts very much like ibase_connect() with two major differences. First, when connecting, the function will first try to find a (persistent) link that's already opened with the same parameters. If one is found, an identifier for it will be returned instead of opening a new connection. Second, the connection to the interBase server will not be closed when the execution of the script ends. Instead, the link will remain open for future use (ibase_close() will not close links established by ibase_pconnect()). This type of link is therefore called 'persistent'.
Замечание: buffers was added in PHP 4.0.0.
