mysql_drop_db
Drop (delete) a MySQL database
(PHP 4, PHP 5, PECL mysql:1.0)
bool mysql_drop_db ( string database_name [, resource link_identifier] )
mysql_drop_db() attempts to drop (remove) an
entire database from the server associated with the specified
link identifier. This function is deprecated, it is preferable to use
mysql_query() to issue a sql
DROP DATABASE statement instead.
Parameters
- database_name
The name of the database that will be deleted.
- link_identifier
The MySQL connection. If the link identifier is not specified, the last link opened by mysql_connect() is assumed. If no such link is found, it will try to create one as if mysql_connect() was called with no arguments. If by chance no connection is found or established, an
E_WARNINGlevel warning is generated.
Examples
Example 1422. mysql_drop_db() alternative example
<?php
$link = mysql_connect('localhost', 'mysql_user', 'mysql_password');
if (!$link) {
die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
}
$sql = 'DROP DATABASE my_db';
if (mysql_query($sql, $link)) {
echo "Database my_db was successfully dropped\n";
} else {
echo 'Error dropping database: ' . mysql_error() . "\n";
}
?>
Notes
This function will not be available if the MySQL extension was built against a MySQL 4.x client library.
For downward compatibility, the following deprecated alias may be used: mysql_dropdb()
| mysql_query() |
