ingres_connect
(PHP 4 >= 4.0.2, PHP 5 <= 5.0.5, PECL ingres:1.0-1.4.3)
ingres_connect — Open a connection to an Ingres II database.
Description
Returns a Ingres II link resource on success, or FALSE on failure.
ingres_connect() opens a connection with the Ingres database designated by database , which follows the syntax [node_id::]dbname[/svr_class] .
If some parameters are missing, ingres_connect() uses the values in php.ini for ingres.default_database , ingres.default_user and ingres.default_password .
The connection is closed when the script ends or when ingres_close() is called on this link.
All the other ingres functions use the last opened link as a default, so you need to store the returned value only if you use more than one link at a time.
Example#1 ingres_connect() example
<?php
$link = ingres_connect ("mydb", "user", "pass")
or die ("Could not connect");
print ("Connected successfully");
ingres_close ($link);
?>
Example#2 ingres_connect() example using default link
<?php
ingres_connect ("mydb", "user", "pass")
or die ("Could not connect");
print ("Connected successfully");
ingres_close ();
?>
