Re: [PHP4BETA] No PHP Support

Hi, I am just after a opinion. I have been looking at a problem that someone has been having with php4-b3 and Easysoft ODBC-ODBC bridge, when using persistent connections. What is going on is that the bridge default to dropping a connect if a time-out period expires, the code in php_odbc.c assumes that once a persistent connection is there it will stay for ever. In fact the code it's self makes passing mention to that... /* XXX we should ensure that the connection is still available */ db_conn = (odbc_connection *)le->ptr; Now the simple solution is to disable the time-outs in our server, however, I wondered if people thought it was worth adding some code to check the connection, and purge it if it has gone down since it was last used. I am not asking anyone to do this, I will (unless someone want's to) but I just wondered what the consensus on this would be ? -- Nick Gorham, Easysoft, UK.
