[Zope] Releasing the database connection after processing a request

[Florian Reiser]

Hello Casey,

we are talking about M$ VFP. I access it with the crappy odbc driver bundled
with it.
If I close it from the database screen, nothing changes, because the object
is still in cache.
Dead, but existing.
A common ugly practive with VFP is, that you can copy its tables/files to do
updates. While copying
nobody should have the database or a single table open. So it would ease the
thing a lot, if zope
would release the database connection after each request. Then the files get
closed.


Regards
Florian Reiser

Can you not close the database connection from the DA's management screen?
What database are we talking about?
