Bug description: connecting to MySQL with wrong data cannot be checked with
mysqli_connect()
Description:
------------
given the example below from the mysqli documentation, I
tried to connect to my MySQL server with wrong data to
see, what happens, if the connection really fails.
unfortunately the constructor does trigger a WARNING
itself and does not return FALSE, as documented. The
mysqli_connect_errno() does only return 0 and even the
$mysqli->errno variable does not have any value. So I
cannot find out, if the connect really has failed or not.
I'm using MySQL 4.1.4
Reproduce code:
---------------
$mysqli = new mysqli("localhost", "my_user", "my_password", "world");
/* check connection */
if (mysqli_connect_errno()) {
printf("Connect failed: %s\n", mysqli_connect_error());
exit();
}
Expected result:
----------------
Connect failed: <error>
Actual result:
--------------
