MAXDB_REAL_CONNECT(3)							 1						     MAXDB_REAL_CONNECT(3)

maxdb_real_connect - Opens a connection to a MaxDB server

       Procedural style

SYNOPSIS

       bool  maxdb_real_connect  (resource   $link,  [string  $hostname], [string  $username], [string	$passwd], [string  $dbname], [int  $port],
       [string	$socket])

DESCRIPTION

       Object oriented style
       bool maxdb::real_connect ([string  $hostname], [string  $username], [string  $passwd], [string  $dbname], [int  $port], [string	$socket])

       maxdb_real_connect(3) attempts to establish a connection to a MaxDB database engine running on $hostname.

	This function differs from maxdb_connect(3):

	      omaxdb_real_connect(3) needs a valid resource which has to be created by function maxdb_init(3)

	      o With function maxdb_options(3) you can set various options for connection.

RETURN VALUES

	Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.

EXAMPLES

       Example #1

	      Object oriented style

	      <?php

	      /* create a connection object which is not connected */
	      $maxdb = maxdb_init();

	      /* set connection options */
	      $maxdb->options(MAXDB_UNICODE, "FALSE");
	      $maxdb->options(MAXDB_TIMEOUT, 5);

	      /* connect to server */
	      $maxdb->real_connect('localhost', 'MONA', 'RED', 'DEMODB');

	      /* check connection */
	      if (maxdb_connect_errno()) {
		 printf("Connect failed: %s
", maxdb_connect_error());
		 exit();
	      }

	      printf ("Connection: %s
.", $maxdb->host_info);

	      $maxdb->close();
	      ?>

       Example #2

	      Procedural style

	      <?php

	      /* create a connection object which is not connected */
	      $link = maxdb_init();

	      /* set connection options */
	      maxdb_options($link, MAXDB_UNICODE, "FALSE");
	      maxdb_options($link, MAXDB_TIMEOUT, 5);

	      /* connect to server */
	      maxdb_real_connect($link, 'localhost', 'MONA', 'RED', 'DEMODB');

	      /* check connection */
	      if (maxdb_connect_errno()) {
		 printf("Connect failed: %s
", maxdb_connect_error());
		 exit();
	      }

	      printf ("Connection: %s
.", maxdb_get_host_info($link));

	      maxdb_close($link);
	      ?>

       The above example will output something similar to:

       Connection: localhost <...>

maxdb_ping - Pings a server connection, or tries to reconnect if the connection has gone down

       Procedural style

SYNOPSIS

       bool maxdb_ping (resource  $link)

DESCRIPTION

       Object oriented style
       bool maxdb::ping (void  )

	Checks	whether  the  connection  to the server is working. If it has gone down, and global option maxdb.reconnect is enabled an automatic
       reconnection is attempted.

	This function can be used by clients that remain idle for a long while, to check whether the server has closed the connection  and  recon-
       nect if necessary.

RETURN VALUES

	Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.

EXAMPLES

       Example #1

	      Object oriented style

	      <?php
	      $maxdb = new maxdb("localhost", "MONA", "RED", "DEMODB");

	      /* check connection */
	      if (maxdb_connect_errno()) {
		 printf("Connect failed: %s
", maxdb_connect_error());
		 exit();
	      }

	      /* check if server is alive */
	      if ($maxdb->ping()) {
		 printf ("Our connection is ok!
");
	      } else {
		 printf ("Error: %s
", $maxdb->error);
	      }

	      /* close connection */
	      $maxdb->close();
	      ?>

       Example #2

	      Procedural style

	      <?php
	      $link = maxdb_connect("localhost", "MONA", "RED", "DEMODB");

	      /* check connection */
	      if (maxdb_connect_errno()) {
		 printf("Connect failed: %s
", maxdb_connect_error());
		 exit();
	      }

	      /* check if server is alive */
	      if (maxdb_ping($link)) {
		 printf ("Our connection is ok!
");
	      } else {
		 printf ("Error: %s
", maxdb_error($link));
	      }

	      /* close connection */
	      maxdb_close($link);
	      ?>

       The above example will output something similar to:

       Our connection is ok!
