Returns a persistent connection to an IBM DB2 Universal Database, IBM Cloudscape, or Apache Derby database. For more information on persistent connections, refer to Chapter 8, Persistent Database Connections.
Calling db2_close() on a persistent connection always
returns TRUE
, but the underlying DB2 client connection remains open and
waiting to serve the next matching db2_pconnect()
request.
The database alias in the DB2 client catalog.
The username with which you are connecting to the database.
The password with which you are connecting to the database.
An associative array of connection options that affect the behavior of the connection, where valid array keys include:
Passing the DB2_AUTOCOMMIT_ON
value turns
autocommit on for this connection handle.
Passing the DB2_AUTOCOMMIT_OFF
value turns
autocommit off for this connection handle.
Passing the DB2_CASE_NATURAL
value specifies
that column names are returned in natural case.
Passing the DB2_CASE_LOWER
value specifies
that column names are returned in lower case.
Passing the DB2_CASE_UPPER
value specifies
that column names are returned in upper case.
Passing the DB2_FORWARD_ONLY
value specifies a
forward-only cursor for a statement resource. This is the default
cursor type and is supported on all database servers.
Passing the DB2_SCROLLABLE
value specifies a
scrollable cursor for a statement resource. This mode enables
random access to rows in a result set, but currently is supported
only by IBM DB2 Universal Database.
Returns a connection handle resource if the connection attempt is
successful. db2_pconnect() tries to reuse an existing
connection resource that exactly matches the
database, username, and
password parameters. If the connection attempt fails,
db2_pconnect() returns FALSE
.
In the following example, the first call to db2_pconnect() returns a new persistent connection resource. The second call to db2_pconnect() returns a persistent connection resource that simply reuses the first persistent connection resource.
<?php
$database = 'SAMPLE';
$user = 'db2inst1';
$password = 'ibmdb2';
$pconn = db2_pconnect($database, $user, $password);
if ($pconn) {
echo "Persistent connection succeeded.";
}
else {
echo "Persistent connection failed.";
}
$pconn2 = db2_pconnect($database, $user, $password);
if ($pconn) {
echo "Second persistent connection succeeded.";
}
else {
echo "Second persistent connection failed.";
}
?>
The above example will output:
Persistent connection succeeded.
Second persistent connection succeeded.
