Hi again
After further inspection of libmysql sources the conclusion is:
- - mysql_real_escape_string() uses MYSQL->charset field from the MYSQL
struct
- - this field is initilized in mysql_real_connect()
- - so after my connection times out I should be able to still use
mysql_real_escape_string() having the charset already set from the last
mysql_real_connect()
PS: please let me know when you mysql devs decide to check for connection
to be online on mysql_real_escape_string() :)
