Initialise a LoadBalancer to give it appropriate chronology protection.

If the session has a previous master position recorded, this will try to make sure that the next query to a slave of that master will see changes up to that position by delaying execution. The delay may timeout and allow stale data if no non-lagged slaves are available.

Parameters:

$lb	LoadBalancer

Returns:

void

Definition at line 45 of file ChronologyProtector.php.

ChronologyProtector::shutdown

(

)

Notify the ChronologyProtector that the LBFactory is done calling shutdownLB() for now.

May commit chronology data to persistent storage.

Returns:

void

Definition at line 97 of file ChronologyProtector.php.

ChronologyProtector::shutdownLB

(

LoadBalancer $
