I'm still confused. What you describe here sounds like persistent connections are a server-only feature. In this case, it would be none of libdbi's business. I've found a switch in the MySQL manual that turns this feature on or off on the server side, but there is no switch or function in the client API. Does this mean persistent connections are supported by libdbi out of the box as soon as you switch them on on the server side? BTW my brief google search turned up lots of pages that are very critical about any performance benefits of this feature. It seems to have an edge over individual connections only under very specific circumstances. I doubt that it is worth the effort to add support for this to libdbi (if this is doable at all). regards, Markus -- Markus Hoenicka [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Spam-protected email: replace the quadrupeds with "mhoenicka") http://www.mhoenicka.de ------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
