pg_end_copy — Sync with PostgreSQL backend

### Description

pg_end_copy ([ resource `$connection` ] ) : bool

pg_end_copy() syncs the PostgreSQL frontend (usually a web server process) with the PostgreSQL server after doing a copy operation performed by pg_put_line(). pg_end_copy() must be issued, otherwise the PostgreSQL server may get out of sync with the frontend and will report an error.

### Parameters

`connection`

  PostgreSQL database connection resource. When `connection` is not present, the default connection is used. The default connection is the last connection made by pg_connect() or pg_pconnect().

### Return Values

Returns `TRUE` on success or `FALSE` on failure.

### Examples

Example #1 pg_end_copy() example

`<?php
$conn = pg_pconnect("dbname=foo");
pg_query($conn, "create table bar (a int4, b char(16), d float8)");
pg_query($conn, "copy bar from stdin");
pg_put_line($conn, "3\thello world\t4.5\n");
pg_put_line($conn, "4\tgoodbye world\t7.11\n");
pg_put_line($conn, "\\.\n");
pg_end_copy($conn);
?>`
