dead.
It is particularly useful in user-supplied error handlers.
o If a DBPROCESS is dead, then almost every DB-Library routine
which receives it as a parameter will immediately fail, calling
the user-supplied error handler.
o Note: If there is no user-supplied error handler, a dead
DBPROCESS will cause the affected DB-Library routines not to
fail, but to abort the program.
PARAMETERS:
dbproc - A pointer to the DBPROCESS structure that provides the
connection for a particular front-end/SQL Server process. It
contains all the information that DB-Library uses to manage
communications and data between the front end and SQL Server.
