Zend_Db -- Singleton implementation as in Zend_Log?

[Axel Christ]

Hi there, are there any plans of implementing the singleton pattern in
Zend_Db? To have the possibility of connecting to different dbs at the
same time it could be done as it is implemented in Zend_Log... Or should
I handle my db connections in a different way when using the Zend framework?

Regards

Axel Christ

I stick my $db into the registry:

    $db = Zend_Db::factory($adapter, $config);
    Zend::register('db', $db);


Then when I need it again:

    $db = Zend::registry('db');

I guess using Zend::registry() instead instead of writing a singleton
interface for every class is much easier

Hi Rob, thanks for pointing me in the right direction there.
