The flags parameter is used to control the amount of
information that is returned. It may be any combination of the following
constants with the bitwise OR operator (|). The DBX_COLNAMES_* flags
override the dbx.colnames_case setting from php.ini.
DBX_RESULT_INDEX
It is always set, that is, the returned object
has a data property which is a 2 dimensional
array indexed numerically. For example, in the expression
data[2][3]2 stands for the row
(or record) number and 3 stands for the column
(or field) number. The first row and column are indexed at 0.
If DBX_RESULT_ASSOC is also specified, the
returning object contains the information related to
DBX_RESULT_INFO too, even if it was not specified.
DBX_RESULT_INFO
It provides info about columns, such as field names and field types.
DBX_RESULT_ASSOC
It effects that the field values can be accessed with the respective
column names used as keys to the returned object's
data property.
Associated results are actually references to the numerically indexed
data, so modifying data[0][0] causes that
data[0]['field_name_for_first_column'] is modified
as well.
DBX_RESULT_UNBUFFERED
This flag will not create the data property, and
the rows property will initially be 0. Use this
flag for large datasets, and use dbx_fetch_row() to
retrieve the results row by row.
The dbx_fetch_row() function will return rows that
are conformant to the flags set with this query. Incidentally, it will
also update the rows each time it is called.
DBX_COLNAMES_UNCHANGED
The case of the returned column names will not be changed.
DBX_COLNAMES_UPPERCASE
The case of the returned column names will be changed to
uppercase.
DBX_COLNAMES_LOWERCASE
The case of the returned column names will be changed to
lowercase.
Note that DBX_RESULT_INDEX is always used, regardless
of the actual value of flags parameter. This means
that only the following combinations are effective:
DBX_RESULT_INDEX
DBX_RESULT_INDEX |
DBX_RESULT_INFO
DBX_RESULT_INDEX |
DBX_RESULT_INFO |
DBX_RESULT_ASSOC - this is the default, if
flags is not specified.
Возвращаемые значения
dbx_query() returns an object or 1
on success, and 0 on failure. The result object is
returned only if the query given in sql_statement
produces a result set (i.e. a SELECT query, even if the result set is
empty).
The returned object has four or five
properties depending on flags:
handle
It is a valid handle for the connected database, and as such it can be
used in module specific functions (if required).
<?php $result = dbx_query($link, "SELECT id FROM table"); mysql_field_len($result->handle, 0); ?>
cols and rows
These contain the number of columns (or fields) and rows (or records)
respectively.
<?php $result = dbx_query($link, 'SELECT id FROM table'); echo $result->rows; // number of records echo $result->cols; // number of fields ?>
info (optional)
It is returned only if either DBX_RESULT_INFO or
DBX_RESULT_ASSOC is specified in the
flags parameter. It is a 2 dimensional array,
that has two named rows (name and
type) to retrieve column information.
Пример #1 lists each field's name and type
<?php $result = dbx_query($link, 'SELECT id FROM table', DBX_RESULT_INDEX | DBX_RESULT_INFO);
This property contains the actual resulting data, possibly associated
with column names as well depending on flags.
If DBX_RESULT_ASSOC is set, it is possible to use
$result->data[2]["field_name"].
Пример #2 outputs the content of data property into HTML table
<?php $result = dbx_query($link, 'SELECT id, parentid, description FROM table');
Introduced DBX_COLNAMES_UNCHANGED,
DBX_COLNAMES_UPPERCASE, and
DBX_COLNAMES_LOWERCASE.
Примеры
Пример #4 How to handle the returned value
<?php $link = dbx_connect(DBX_ODBC, "", "db", "username", "password") or die("Could not connect");
$result = dbx_query($link, 'SELECT id, parentid, description FROM table');
if (is_object($result) ) { // ... do some stuff here, see detailed examples below ... // first, print out field names and types // then, draw a table filled with the returned field values } else { exit("Query failed"); }
dbx_close($link); ?>
Примечания
Замечание:
Always refer to the module-specific documentation as well.
Column names for queries on an Oracle database are returned in lowercase.
