mysql_kill
Syntax
int mysql_kill(MYSQL * mysql, unsigned long);
mysql
- a mysql handle, which was previously allocated by mysql_init() or mysql_real_connect().long
- process id
Description
This function is used to ask the server to kill a MariaDB thread specified by the processid parameter. This value must be retrieved by SHOW PROCESSLIST. If trying to kill the own connection mysql_thread_id() should be used.
Returns 0 on success, otherwise nonzero.
To stop a running command without killing the connection use KILL QUERY. The mysql_kill() function only kills a connection, it doesn't free any memory - this must be done explicitly by calling mysql_close().
