(PECL maxdb >= 1.0)
maxdb_field_seek -- result->field_seek — Set result pointer to a specified field offset
Procedural style:
Object oriented style (method):
Sets the field cursor to the given offset. The next call to maxdb_fetch_field() will retrieve the field definition of the column associated with that offset.
Note: To seek to the beginning of a row, pass an offset value of zero.
maxdb_field_seek() returns previuos value of field cursor.
Example #1 Object oriented style
<?php
$maxdb = new maxdb("localhost", "MONA", "RED", "DEMODB");
/* check connection */
if (maxdb_connect_errno()) {
printf("Connect failed: %s\n", maxdb_connect_error());
exit();
}
$query = "SELECT name, cno from hotel.customer ORDER BY cno";
if ($result = $maxdb->query($query)) {
/* Get field information for 2nd column */
$result->field_seek(1);
$finfo = $result->fetch_field();
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
0000BB">close();
?>
Example #2 Procedural style
<?php
$link = maxdb_connect("localhost", "MONA", "RED", "DEMODB");
/* check connection */
if (maxdb_connect_errno()) {
printf("Connect failed: %s\n", maxdb_connect_error());
exit();
}
$query = "SELECT name, cno from hotel.customer ORDER BY cno";
if ($result = maxdb_query($link, $query)) {
/* Get field information for 2nd column */
maxdb_field_seek($result, 1);
$finfo = maxdb_fetch_field($result);
printf("Name: %s\n", $finfo->name);
printf("Table: %s\n", $finfo->table);
printf("max. Len: %d\n", $finfo->max_length);
printf("Flags: %d\n", $finfo->flags);
printf($link);
?>
The above example will output something similar to:
Name: NAME Table: max. Len: 10 Flags: -1 Type: 2
