What is the recommended way of checking whether an RODBC connection is open?
Since odbcValidChannel is not exported from namespace RODBC, I suppose I
shouldn't be using it.
This is the best I could come up with, but it seems a bit 'dirty' to be
using a tryCatch for something like this:
odbcOpenp <- function(conn)
tryCatch({odbcGetInfo(conn);TRUE},error=function(...)FALSE)
Suggestions?
