ARMySQLConnection ignores 'port' key
Reported by jabo | August 15th, 2008 @ 01:39 AM
when creating a connection, the 'port' key value is not utilized even though it is required.
to confirm, just modify the port variable to use anything other than the default port of 3306.
perhaps the mySQLConnection object is defaulting to using the socket and not the port.
while digging into the headers, I was unable to find which define needs to change to force mySQL to use the port and not the socket.

Hm, I took a look at the code and I don't see why this would happen, Here's the line that creates the mysql connection, are you sure you're using 'port' as the key for a NSNumber containing the desired port number when executingopenConnectionWithInfo:error: ? If so, let me know and I'll try to dig in deeper (although if that's the case it looks like a libmysqlclient bug which is unlikely)
res = mysql_real_connect(mySQLConnection, [host UTF8String], [username UTF8String], [password UTF8String], [database UTF8String], port, NULL, 0); -

You are correct, I did some further testing and found that mysql_real_connect will not use the port setting value if your host key equals 'localhost' it will use the default socket instead.
This does not affect your code at all, just a gotcha for others, probably one I should have known about.
Thanks for taking a look.

ActiveRecord is an insanely easy to use database framework written in objective-c It's obviously "inspired" by (copying) the infamous ActiveRecord that comes with Rails(http://rubyonrails.org) But it tries to be more versatile when it comes to working with multiple connections.
