When used, the macro creates a new connection with the information inserted in its parameters. This connection is available throughout the current session Scriptcase and cease to exist when the session is closed.

1º Parameter: Connection name.

Note: If there is a connection created within the Scriptcase with the same name, this macro has no effect. Connections created within the Scriptcase prevail. If you want to edit an existing connection, see the documentation for the macro sc_connection_edit.

2º Parameter: Array of items containing the connection information. Check out the indices of the array:

Note: It is required that all items are filled, with the exception of items ['persistent'] and ['encoding'].

See below the driver's list:

Example:

$arr_conn = array();

$arr_conn['drive'] = "mysqlt";
$arr_conn['server'] = "127.0.0.1";
$arr_conn['user'] = "root";
$arr_conn['password'] = "pass123";
$arr_conn['database'] = "sc_samples";
$arr_conn['persistent'] = "Y";
$arr_conn['encoding'] = "utf8";

sc_connection_new("new_conn_mysql", $arr_conn);
