ifx_close — Close Informix connection

### Description

bool ifx_close ([ resource `$link_identifier` ] )

ifx_close() closes the link to an Informix database that's associated with the specified link identifier.

Note that this isn't usually necessary, as non-persistent open links are automatically closed at the end of the script's execution.

ifx_close() will not close persistent links generated by ifx_pconnect().

### Parameters

`link_identifier`

  The link identifier. If not specified, the last opened link is assumed.

### Return Values

Returns `TRUE` on success or `FALSE` on failure.

### Examples

Example#1 Closing a Informix connection

`<?php
$conn_id = ifx_connect ("mydb@ol_srv", "itsme", "mypassword");
/* ... some queries and stuff ... */
ifx_close($conn_id);
?>`
