Chris,
PHP provides a resource list and cleanup framework. The new
sqlrelay PHP API uses it.
Whenever sqlrcon_alloc or sqlrcur_alloc is called, it creates an
instance of the sqlrconnection or sqlrcursor C++ class and puts it in
the resource list for the PHP module. Those functions return a list id
rather than returning the instance itself now.
Each of the sqlrelay functions take the id, look up the instance in the
"resource list" and use it.
The sqlrcon_free and sqlrcur_free functions look up the instance in the
list, remove it from the "resource list" and delete it.
When a page is done (either aborted or terminated normally) PHP runs
through a cleanup process where it goes through it's resource list,
calling whatever cleanup function is registered for each item in the
list. The sqlrelay module registers cleanup functions that delete the
sqlrconnection or sqlrcursor instances now.
So, you can use the sqlrcon_free or sqlrcur_free methods, you can
register shutdown handlers that use them. All that will still work,
but you don't have to anymore.
I need to update the docs :)
