I'm writing a pool manager to manage x connections to a pgsql postmaster. The getConnection method has to check if the connection is still valid, and try to reconnect if it ain't. Do you guys have a good way of doing this? Can I use PQstatus? Should I make a little runCommand on it to try it out? Then what command? If it's bad, should I run a PQfinish on it before reconnecting or not? Thank you plenty! --- Daniel Akerud ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/users-lounge/docs/faq.html
