On page: http://library.gnome.org/devel/libgda-4.0/3.99/GdaConnection.html for function gda_connection_open_from_dsn, we find: " If a new GdaConnection <http://library.gnome.org/devel/libgda-4.0/3.99/GdaConnection.html> is created, then the caller will hold a reference on it." This seems to imply that if an existing connection was returned from a pool of connections, then the caller does not hold a reference on it. Therefore, the caller should call g_object_unref only in the case when a new connection is created. Question: How does one tell if a new connection was created?
On page: http://library.gnome.org/devel/libgda-4.0/3.99/connections.html We find this statement: " Closing the connection can be ordered using gda_connection_close () <http://library.gnome.org/devel/libgda-4.0/3.99/GdaConnection.html#gda-connection-close>, or is automatically done when the connection object is destroyed (as is the case in the example abive when g_object_unref() is called with the connection as argument)." When I called g_object_unref on the connection, expecting it to close automatically, I found the following in the PostgreSQL log: issue513149_dbLOG: unexpected EOF on client connection issue513149_dbLOG: disconnection: session time: 0:00:00.268 user=issue513149_user database=issue513149_db host=127.0.0.1 port=37580 When I added a call to gda_connection_close prior to the g_object_unref, the unexpected EOF message did not appear. It seems that with PostgreSQL, the connection is not automatically closing.
