mysqli_fetch_fields

(PHP 5)

mysqli_fetch_fields

(no version information, might be only in CVS)

result->fetch_fields -- Returns an array of objects representing the fields in a result set

Description

Procedural Style:

mixed mysqli_fetch_fields ( object result)

Object oriented style (method):

class result {

mixed fetch_fields ( void )

}

This function serves an identical purpose to the mysqli_fetch_field() function with the single difference that, instead of returning one object at a time for each field, the columns are returned as an array of objects.

Return values

Returns an array of objects which contains field definition informations or FALSE if no field information is available.

Таблица 1. Object properties

Property Description
name The name of the column
orgname Original column name if an alias was specified
table The name of the table this field belongs to (if not calculated)
orgtable Original table name if an alias was specified
def The default value for this field, represented as a string
max_length The maximum width of the field for the result set.
flags An integer representing the bit-flags for the field.
type The data type used for this field
decimals The number of decimals used (for integer fields)

Example

Пример 1. Object oriented style

<?php
$mysqli
= new mysqli("localhost", "my_user", "my_password", "world");

/* check connection */
if (mysqli_connect_errno()) {
    
printf("Connect failed: %s\n", mysqli_connect_error());
    exit();
}

$query = "SELECT Name, SurfaceArea from Country ORDER BY Code LIMIT 5";

if (
$result = $mysqli->query($query)) {

    
/* Get field information for all columns */
    
$finfo = $result->fetch_fields();

    for (
$i=0; $i < count($finfo); $i++) {
        
printf("Name:     %s\n", $finfo[$i]->name);
        
printf("Table:    %s\n", $finfo[$i]->table);
        
printf("max. Len: %d\n", $finfo[$i]->max_length);
        
printf("Flags:    %d\n", $finfo[$i]->flags);
        
printf("Type:     %d\n\n", $finfo[$i]->type);
    }    
    
$result->close();
}

/* close connection */
$mysqli->close();
?>

Пример 2. Procedural style

<?php
$link
= mysqli_connect("localhost", "my_user", "my_password", "world");

/* check connection */
if (mysqli_connect_errno()) {
    
printf("Connect failed: %s\n", mysqli_connect_error());
    exit();
}

$query = "SELECT Name, SurfaceArea from Country ORDER BY Code LIMIT 5";

if (
$result = mysqli_query($link, $query)) {

    
/* Get field information for all columns */
    
$finfo = mysqli_fetch_fields($result);

    for (
$i=0; $i < count($finfo); $i++) {
        
printf("Name:     %s\n", $finfo[$i]->name);
        
printf("Table:    %s\n", $finfo[$i]->table);
        
printf("max. Len: %d\n", $finfo[$i]->max_length);
        
printf("Flags:    %d\n", $finfo[$i]->flags);
        
printf("Type:     %d\n\n", $finfo[$i]->type);
    }    
    
mysqli_free_result($result);
}

/* close connection */
mysqli_close($link);
?>

The above examples would produce the following output:

Name:     Name
Table:    Country
max. Len: 11
Flags:    1
Type:     254

Name:     SurfaceArea
Table:    Country
max. Len: 10
Flags:    32769
Type:     4
