Description
resource
ingres_pconnect ( [string database [, string username [, string password]]])
Returns a Ingres II link resource on success, or FALSE on failure.
See ingres_connect() for parameters details and
examples. There are only 2 differences between
ingres_pconnect() and
ingres_connect() :
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 Ingres
server will not be closed when the execution of the script ends.
Instead, the link will remain open for future use
(ingres_close() will not close links established
by ingres_pconnect()). This type of link is
therefore called 'persistent'.
See also
ingres_connect(), and
ingres_close().
