Description:
------------

From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.sybase-connect
---
We need an additional parameter for the sybase_connect function: Databasename

Like this:

resource sybase_connect ([ string $servername [, string $username [, string $password [, string $charset [, string $appname [, bool $new = false ][, string $Databasename ]]]]]])

If you have specified a default databasename "database1" at the sybase-server and the database has the following users: "user1", "user2" but you have also a database "database2" with "user3" and "user4", you have no chance to connect to "database2" with "user3".

Following errors appear:
sybase_connect(): Sybase:  Unable to connect in ...
sybase_select_db(): supplied argument is not a valid Sybase-Link resource in ...

Because of some backup/restore behavior we have to define a default database! It would be a nice feature to add the "databasename" to the sybase_connect:-)

The sybase maintainer has backed away from the project, since nobody new has come forward it has been removed in version 7 of PHP.

For this reason, I'm marking the bug as won't fix, it can still be found by any maintainer that might come along and revive sybase as a PECL project.
