Hi, The attached patch against current CVS adds an optional parameter to mysql_connect() to specify if a truly new link to the database should be established. The patch changes the prototype to:
resource mysql_connect ([string hostname [, string username [, string password [, bool new_link ]]]]); There is no BC issue. The optional parameter is ignored when using mysql_pconnect(). FYI: This is what a few people have complained about in the past and there are existing Bu^H^HFeature Requests for this behaviour (can't find them right now, too late). Example old hevaiour (will fail): <? $link1 = mysql_connect('ficken', 'phptest1', 'phptest1'); mysql_select_db('phptest1', $link1); $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM php", $link1); var_dump($result); $link2 = mysql_connect('ficken', 'phptest1', 'phptest1'); mysql_select_db('phptest2', $link2); $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM perl", $link2); var_dump($result); $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM php", $link1); var_dump($result); ?> Example new behaviour (works): <? $link1 = mysql_connect('ficken', 'phptest1', 'phptest1'); mysql_select_db('phptest1', $link1); $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM php", $link1); var_dump($result); $link2 = mysql_connect('ficken', 'phptest1', 'phptest1', true); ^^^^^^^^ mysql_select_db('phptest2', $link2); $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM perl", $link2); var_dump($result); $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM php", $link1); var_dump($result); ?> In the first example, the last query will fail. In the second it works. - Markus
