Default How to connect copper to PVC?

What is the best way - without soldering - to connect a 3/4" rigid
copper pipe to 3/4" PVC 40?

If there is no good way, what do I need to buy to make a solder
joint? Thank you

Don't use metal Male threaded fittings into Female PVC. The PVC will expand or
split, resulting in leaks. The reverse is better.
