Bug #67799 [Opn->Wfx]: mssql_close($link) doesn't seem to close the $link

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=67799&edit=1 ID: 67799 Updated by: kalle@php.net Reported by: maferra at isq dot pt Summary: mssql_close($link) doesn't seem to close the $link -Status: Open +Status: Wont fix Type: Bug Package: MSSQL related Operating System: SunOS 5.11 11.1 i86pc PHP Version: Irrelevant Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: With MSSQL being removed from PHP as of PHP7.0, and ext/mssql not having a maintainer, I'm gonna close this report as a Won't fix, until maybe one day it will find a new maintainer. Alternatively you can use sqlsrv from Microsoft if you are on Windows, or pdo_dblib if you are on Unix.

Description: mssql_close($link) doesn't seem to close the $link (and perhaps NULL the $link variable), but mssql_close() does close the last opened link. In the test script I have made an example. Test script: --------------- MSSQL_SERVERNAME, MSSQL_USERNAME, MSSQL_PASSWORD are constants with the real parameters. Example (it works): =================== Code: var_dump(mssql_connect(MSSQL_SERVERNAME, MSSQL_USERNAME, MSSQL_PASSWORD)); var_dump(mssql_close()); $f = mssql_fetch_assoc(mssql_query("select getdate();")); var_dump($f); Output: resource(2) of type (mssql link) bool(true) NULL Example (it doesn't work as expected): ====================================== Code: var_dump($c = mssql_connect(MSSQL_SERVERNAME, MSSQL_USERNAME, MSSQL_PASSWORD)); var_dump(mssql_close($c)); $f = mssql_fetch_assoc(mssql_query("select getdate();", $c)); var_dump($f); Output: resource(2) of type (mssql link) bool(true) array(1) { 'computed' => string(26) "Aug 6 2014 05:18:37:883PM" } I believe that it shouldn't have made the query (in fact, mssql_close($c) has returned true, so the link should be closed). Can I give you further further information?
