check db connection in PEAR DB

[Anon]

Hi,

I am using PEAR DB for my DB handler.

Sometimes there will be a connection error from ServerA to my DBserver.

I am wonder is there anyway to check the db connection is valid or not. If the connection to DB handler is false, then it will try to reconnect untill succeed. Anyway to do this?

Because I am try to delete the email from my MySQL and pop server. Sometimes it succeed to delete mail from pop server, but failed to delete from DB because of the UNEXPECTED connection error happend a while. So some emails with empty content.

Thanks in advance.
Louis
