[TYPO3-core] RFC: another enhancement to the DB connect method and error display in the FE

[Martin Kutschker]

Hi!

Patch request for trunk.

Problem 1: t3lib_db::sql_pconnect() logs errors, but doesn't report them 
to the caller. UI driven scripts cannot display detailed errors.

Problem 2: While logging is nice, novice users/admins are probably not 
aware of the logging feature (see other post for a remedy). They would 
need a direct information in the UI.

Solution: Add an optional message parameter that returns any Mysql 
errors. Luckily this can be done with PHP 5.x. Show the error message in 
class.tslib_fe.php, but ONLY if the IP is within the devIPmask-Range.

Maybe devIPmask ist not appropriate. We could add a adminIPmask then.
