As you and others have asked "Why?" here's the answer. I am developing
a VB.NET application that uses SQL as the database backend and I check
the existance of all required tables when the application starts. If
any tables are missing, I assume the database is corrupt and give the
user the option of deleting the current corrupt database and
recreating it. I open a connection to scan the database for the
requied tables and iof the user wants to start over, I would like to
close the connection and immediately open a connection to the master
database and drop the application database. But with connection
pooling, it appears that I will have to wait for 6 1/2 minutes (in my
case) before I can do that. I would prefer to not have to wait.
Yes, connection pooling is a good thing, but I would like to
temporarily disable it in this case.
