                                  pg_pconnect

   (PHP 3, PHP 4 )
   pg_pconnect -- Open a persistent PostgreSQL connection

Description

   resource pg_pconnect ( string connection_string)

   pg_pconnect() opens a connection to a PostgreSQL database. It returns
   a connection resource that is needed by other PostgreSQL functions.

   For a description of the connection_string parameter, see
   pg_connect().

   To enable persistent connection, the pgsql.allow_persistent php.ini
   directive must be set to "On" (which is the default). The maximum
   number of persistent connection can be defined with the
   pgsql.max_persistent php.ini directive (defaults to -1 for no limit).
   The total number of connections can be set with the pgsql.max_links
   php.ini directive.

   pg_close() will not close persistent links generated by pg_pconnect().

   See also pg_connect(), and the section Persistent Database Connections
   for more information.
