[Solar-talk] Connecting to two databases

[Kilbride, James P.]

Antti, can you provide an example showing this? Easy to say, better to
see a code example.

All the Solar classes that use Solar_Sql accept a config param for a
Solar_Sql "dependency". So, if you create a second Solar_Sql instance
and put it in the registry with a different name, say `sql2`, you can
then have classes use that other connection if you give them `sql2` as
the config param for the dependency.

Hope that helps.
