When creating a new DbPool object, you need to indicate the type of database you are connecting to. The following are examples of commonly available database types:
ORACLE
SYBASE
INFORMIX
DB2
ODBC
Use one of these values in the first argument to this method.
You will also need to know the name of your target server, a valid username and password and, if multiple databases are supported by your database server, then you will need to know the name of the target database you want to connect to.
The last two arguments indicate the maximum number of connections available at once and a flag to indicate the commit policy on closure. You can elect to automatically commit any changes (dangerous) or roll back any uncommitted changes.
