Req #60124 [NEW]: Allow for Custom Application name in MSSQL connection

From: Operating system: FreeBSD (should work on any) PHP version: 5.3.8 Package: MSSQL related Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description:Allow for Custom Application name in MSSQL connection Description: ------------ MSSQL (and FreeTDS) has the notion of Application Name on for the connection. In the php5 mssql module it hard codes that to 'PHP 5'. Ideally this would be a user configurable setting. When multiple PHP applications are connecting to the same MSSQL database it makes it much easier to distinguish between connections by this Application Name. Expected result: ---------------- By Applying this patch it allows the user to set an application for the connection and it is visible in the MSSQL profiler and other tools. //Example Use: $dbhandle = mssql_pconnect($server_name, $user, $password, $new_link, "My PHP App"); -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=60124&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60124&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60124&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60124&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60124&r=fixed Fixed in SVN and need be documented: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60124&r=needdocs Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60124&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60124&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60124&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60124&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60124&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60124&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60124&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60124&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60124&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60124&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60124&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60124&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60124&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60124&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60124&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60124&r=mysqlcfg
