SQL_MakeDbTuple

Syntax

native Handle:SQL_MakeDbTuple(const host[], const user[], const pass[], const db[], timeout=0);

Description

Creates a connection information tuple.
This tuple must be passed into connection routines.
Freeing the tuple is not necessary, but is a good idea if you
create many of them. You can cache these handles globally.
!!NOTE!! I have seen most people think that this connects to the DB.
Nowhere does it say this, and in fact it does not. It only caches
the connection information, the host/user/pass/etc.

The optional timeout parameter specifies how long connections should wait before
giving up. If 0, the default (which is undefined) is used.
