Thank you for all your suggestions and resources, just some insight into the problem I am trying to solve, I have to create n process and print the process number to a file m times; this is a sample:
% a.out 5 3 temp
should result in temp having the following contents:
1
2
3
4
5
1
2
3
4
5
1
2
3
4
5
Can you think of another solution other than the possibilities discussed.
Thank you,
FG

maxdb_rollback
MAXDB_ROLLBACK(3) 1 MAXDB_ROLLBACK(3)
maxdb_rollback - Rolls back current transaction
Procedural style
SYNOPSIS
bool maxdb_rollback (resource $link)
DESCRIPTION
Object oriented style
bool maxdb::rollback (void )
Rollbacks the current transaction for the database specified by the $link parameter.
RETURN VALUES
Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.
EXAMPLES
Example #1
Object oriented style
<?php
$maxdb = new maxdb("localhost", "MONA", "RED", "DEMODB");
/* check connection */
if (maxdb_connect_errno()) {
printf("Connect failed: %s
", maxdb_connect_error());
exit();
}
/* disable autocommit */
$maxdb->autocommit(FALSE);
$maxdb->query("CREATE TABLE temp.mycity LIKE hotel.city");
$maxdb->query("INSERT INTO temp.mycity SELECT * FROM hotel.city");
/* commit insert */
$maxdb->commit();
/* delete all rows */
$maxdb->query("DELETE FROM temp.mycity");
if ($result = $maxdb->query("SELECT COUNT(*) FROM temp.mycity")) {
$row = $result->fetch_row();
printf("%d rows in table mycity.
", $row[0]);
/* Free result */
$result->close();
}
/* Rollback */
$maxdb->rollback();
if ($result = $maxdb->query("SELECT COUNT(*) FROM temp.mycity")) {
$row = $result->fetch_row();
printf("%d rows in table mycity (after rollback).
", $row[0]);
/* Free result */
$result->close();
}
/* Drop table myCity */
$maxdb->query("DROP TABLE temp.mycity");
$maxdb->close();
?>
Example #2
Procedural style
<?php
$link = maxdb_connect("localhost", "MONA", "RED", "DEMODB");
/* check connection */
if (maxdb_connect_errno()) {
printf("Connect failed: %s
", maxdb_connect_error());
exit();
}
/* disable autocommit */
maxdb_autocommit($link, FALSE);
maxdb_query($link, "CREATE TABLE temp.mycity LIKE hotel.city");
maxdb_query($link, "INSERT INTO temp.mycity SELECT * FROM hotel.city");
/* commit insert */
maxdb_commit($link);
/* delete all rows */
maxdb_query($link, "DELETE FROM temp.mycity");
if ($result = maxdb_query($link, "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM temp.mycity")) {
$row = maxdb_fetch_row($result);
printf("%d rows in table mycity.
", $row[0]);
/* Free result */
maxdb_free_result($result);
}
/* Rollback */
maxdb_rollback($link);
if ($result = maxdb_query($link, "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM temp.mycity")) {
$row = maxdb_fetch_row($result);
printf("%d rows in table mycity (after rollback).
", $row[0]);
/* Free result */
maxdb_free_result($result);
}
/* Drop table myCity */
maxdb_query($link, "DROP TABLE temp.mycity");
maxdb_close($link);
?>
The above example will output something similar to:
0 rows in table mycity.
25 rows in table mycity (after rollback).
