if we do so, we are setting the username and password to the same as the
already opened connection, which is not what we want. We want to find a
connection with the same dsn/user/password as passed in the arguments.

that's why I add the "", to compare "" instead of NULL.

you are right on this, we should be doing:

	tmp_dsn = dsn ? dsn : gda_connection_get_dsn (cnc);
        tmp_usr = username ? username : gda_connection_get_username
(cnc);
        tmp_pwd = password ? password : gda_connection_get_password
(cnc);

This is now in CVS. Let me know of any other problem you see.
