Examples
Example 20.175. 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 */
while ($finfo = $result->fetch_field()) {
/* get fieldpointer offset */
$currentfield = $result->current_field;
printf('Column %d:\n', $currentfield);
printf('Name: %s\n', $finfo->name);
printf('Table: %s\n', $finfo->table);
printf('max. Len: %d\n', $finfo->max_length);
printf('Flags: %d\n', $finfo->flags);
printf('Type: %d\n\n', $finfo->type);
}
$result->close();
}
/* close connection */
$mysqli->close();
?>
Example 20.176. 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, $query)) {
/* Get field information for all fields */
while ($finfo = mysqli_fetch_field($result)) {
/* get fieldpointer offset */
$currentfield = mysqli_field_tell($result);
printf('Column %d:\n', $currentfield);
printf('Name: %s\n', $finfo->name);
printf('Table: %s\n', $finfo->table);
printf('max. Len: %d\n', $finfo->max_length);
printf('Flags: %d\n', $finfo->flags);
printf('Type: %d\n\n', $finfo->type);
}
mysqli_free_result($result);
}
/* close connection */
mysqli_close($link);
?>
The above examples will output:
Column 1: Name: Name Table: Country max. Len: 11 Flags: 1 Type: 254 Column 2: Name: SurfaceArea Table: Country max. Len: 10 Flags: 32769 Type: 4
