ifx_close

Close Informix connection

&reftitle.description; `bool` `ifx_close` `resource` `link_identifier`

`ifx_close` closes the link to an Informix database that's associated with the specified link identifier.

Note that this isn't usually necessary, as non-persistent open links are automatically closed at the end of the script's execution.

`ifx_close` will not close persistent links generated by `ifx_pconnect`.

&reftitle.parameters;

`link_identifier`

- The link identifier. If not specified, the last opened link is assumed.

&reftitle.returnvalues;
