mysql_autocommit

Name
mysql_autocommit - Toggles autocommit mode

Synopsis

#include <mysql.h>


my_bool mysql_autocommit(MYSQL * mysql, my_bool auto_mode);

Description
Toggles autocommit mode on or off for the current database connection. Autocommit mode will be set if mode=1 or unset if mode=0.

Parameters:

mysql is a connection identifier, which was previously allocated by mysql_init(3) and connected by mysql_real_connect(3).

auto_mode - whether to turn autocommit on or not.

Notes

Autocommit mode only affects operations on transactional table types. To determine the current state of autocommit mode use the SQL command SELECT @@autocommit or check the server status (see example below).

Be aware: the [mysql_rollback()}(mysql_rollback() function will not work if autocommit mode is switched on.

Examples
SQL

# Turn of autocmmit
SET AUTOCOMMIT=0;


# Retrieve autocommit
SELECT @@autocommit;
+--------------+
| @@autocommit |
+--------------+
|            0 |
