dblink_disconnect

Name

dblink_disconnect -- closes a persistent connection to a remote database

Synopsis

    dblink_disconnect() returns text
    dblink_disconnect(text connname) returns text

Description

dblink_disconnect() closes a connection previously opened by dblink_connect(). The form with no arguments closes an unnamed connection.

Arguments

conname: The name of a named connection to be closed.

Return Value

  OK
 (1 row)

 select dblink_disconnect('myconn');
  dblink_disconnect
 -------------------
  OK
