pg_close

(PHP 3, PHP 4 )

pg_close -- Closes a PostgreSQL connection

Description

bool pg_close ( resource connection)

pg_close() closes the non-persistent connection to a PostgreSQL database associated with the given connection resource. Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.

Note: Using pg_close() is not usually necessary, as non-persistent open connections are automatically closed at the end of the script.

Example 1. pg_close() example

<?php
    $dbconn = pg_connect("host=localhost port=5432 dbname=mary")
        or die("Could not connect");
    print("Connected successfully");
    pg_close($dbconn);
?>

If there is open large object resource on the connection, do not close the connection before closing all large object resources.
