I am making my first steps in the OOP world - please bear with me.
I know that having many ongoing mySQL connections open at the same time can be fatal for performance, so it should be a good idea to make a database class that takes this into account.
Is $this->session->write(...);
going to result in a new mySQL connection being opened each time?
Or is that up to the "persistent connection" feature in mySQL?
Here's the code:
abstract class database {
function __construct() {
//mysql_connect()
}
}
class session extends database {
function write () {
// mysql_query(--.)
}
}
