pg_close - Closes a PostgreSQL connection

SYNOPSIS

       bool pg_close ([resource  $connection])

DESCRIPTION

       pg_close(3) closes the non-persistent connection to a PostgreSQL database associated with the given $connection resource.

       Note

	       Using pg_close(3) is not usually necessary, as non-persistent open connections are automatically closed at the end of the script.

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

PARAMETERS

	      o $connection
		- PostgreSQL database connection resource. When $connection is not present, the default connection is used. The default connection
		is the last connection made by pg_connect(3) or pg_pconnect(3).

RETURN VALUES

	Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.

EXAMPLES
