Do we have an API like mysql_ping to check whether the
server is up and running after the connection has been established?
I checked the PostgreSQL docs but of no use.
Is there any work around for this?

PQstatus perhaps?

This only returns the last status, not the current.
pgAdmin uses SELECT 1 for this.

At the protocol level, you could send Sync and wait for ReadyForQuery.

Better still: PQtransactionStatus, followed by a quick
PQexec of SELECT

At the client level, the easiest thing
