Indicates whether Elipse E3 has an active connection with a database. Elipse E3 normally uses 2 (two) connections with this database, one for writing and another one for reading. This property is in True if at least one of those 2 (two) connections is connected and working. This property should not be used to detect connection failures, as it may be in False in several situations, such as:

•When a database is not in use, that is, no writing or reading operation was executed

•When a database was just configured, that is, when a connection property of the database changes at run time all connections are closed, and they are reconnected only at the next reading or writing operation

•When a database connection drops, such as when the network is not available or the database was closed

•When a Database object is disabled, although with a Database object deactivated, a connection can be reestablished if an application requests an immediate reading or writing to a database

This is a read-only property.
