Re: [PHP-DB] Global Connection object

2002-05-15 Thread Vinod Palan

Hi,
I Think most of people put connection object in separate file and include
the file when ever need.
And in that connection file I open the connection and its available thought
the file.
Thanks
Vinod

Probably.  However, you'll have to global($connection_obj) in each function
to allow access to that.  I think newer versions of PHP have an auto registering
global namespace, however, and you may not need that global() call anymore.

Why would you want to?  I believe the PHP/Zend engine has pooling capabilities,
so it's not really any overhead to "reconnect."  If no pooling is available, then you
limit yourself (and your webserver) to a single connection. (Will kill your 
performance.)

HTH.

Just put it in a separate file and include it in whatever page needs to 
access the DB.

[PHP-DB] Global Connection object

2002-05-01 Thread Shaun Johnston

Is it possible to make a MySQL connection object global, so that it doesn't
need to be declared as a parameter to be accessed from individual functions?
