[elephant-devel] Dropping DB connection during writes

[Ian Eslick]

What interface do you use to deal with opening/closing separate  
connections in your system?  You want to use the same handles in the  
BDB backend and I don't think we want to have different interfaces for  
different backends.  There is some code for doing this automatically  
by looking at unique thread ids in the CL-SQL backend, I believe, that  
keeps the same interface.
