Returns the thread ID for the current connection maxdb_store_result maxdb_thread_safe MaxDB Functions PHP Manual maxdb_thread_id maxdb->thread_id (PECL maxdb:1.0-7.6.00.38)maxdb_thread_id -- maxdb->thread_id — Returns the thread ID for the current connection Description Procedural style: int maxdb_thread_id ( resource $link ) Object oriented style (property): maxdb int $thread_id; The maxdb_thread_id() function returns the thread ID for the current connection which can then be killed using the maxdb_kill() function. If the connection is lost and you reconnect with maxdb_ping(), the thread ID will be other. Therefore you should get the thread ID only when you need it. Note: The thread ID is assigned on a connection-by-connection basis. Hence, if the connection is broken and then re-established a new thread ID will be assigned. Return Values maxdb_thread_id() returns the Thread ID for the current connection. Examples Example #1 Object oriented style <?php$maxdb = new maxdb("localhost", "MONA", "RED", "DEMODB");/* check connection */if (maxdb_connect_errno()) { printf("Connect failed: %s\n", maxdb_connect_error()); exit();}/* determine our thread id */$thread_id = $maxdb->thread_id;/* Kill connection */$maxdb->kill($thread_id);/* This should produce an error */if (!$maxdb->query("CREATE TABLE mycity LIKE hotel.city")) { printf("Error: %s\n", $maxdb->error); exit;}/* close connection */$maxdb->close();?> Example #2 Procedural style <?php$link = maxdb_connect("localhost", "MONA", "RED", "DEMODB");/* check connection */if (maxdb_connect_errno()) { printf("Connect failed: %s\n", maxdb_connect_error()); exit();}/* determine our thread id */$thread_id = maxdb_thread_id($link);/* Kill connection */maxdb_kill($link, $thread_id);/* This should produce an error */if (!maxdb_query($link, "CREATE TABLE mycity LIKE hotel.city")) { printf("Error: %s\n", maxdb_error($link)); exit;}/* close connection */maxdb_close($link);?> The above example will output something similar to: Warning: maxdb_query(): -10821 Session not connected <...> Error: Session not connected See Also maxdb_kill() maxdb_store_result maxdb_thread_safe MaxDB Functions PHP Manual
