ID: 40913 Comment by: ssuffic...@php.net Reported by: dennis at inmarket dot lviv dot ua Summary: PDO::PARAM_LOB does not bind to a stream for fetching a BLOB Status: Re-Opened Type: Bug Package: PDO related Operating System: Win XP PHP Version: 5.2.6 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: PGSQL binds to a stream object for a LOB. Which PDO driver is this referring to? Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-11-07 12:15:02] johan...@php.net The implementation for this is broken in PDO core. For PGSQL there is a workaround documented: Since information about the columns is not always available to PDO until the statement is executed, portable applications should call this function after PDOStatement::execute(). However, to be able to bind a LOB column as a stream when using the PgSQL driver, applications should call this method before calling PDOStatement::execute(), otherwise the large object OID will be returned as an integer. http://www.php.net/manual/en/pdostatement.bindcolumn.php This works neither works with sqlite nor mysql drivers. After research I assume it won't work with other drivers either. The LOB-handling happens in the param_hook for PDO_PARAM_EVT_EXEC_PRE. But this event only happens if there are bound parameters during execute. But result columns are bound after execute ... The support for this feature has do be redesigned in PDO core ... as MySQL has no native stream support I don't support adding a hack for this. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-11-07 08:55:18] vicrry at yahoo dot com dot hk As of PHP 5.3.15, this bug still exists. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-08-04 12:40:50] david dot palella at gmail dot com The problem is still present with PHP v. 5.3.10 and Ubuntu 12.10 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-10-20 09:48:17] oridan82 at gmail dot com PHP 5.3.5 PARAM_LOB is returning a string instead of a stream. Code: ----- $stmt = $conn->prepare($qry); $stmt->bindValue(1, $_GET['id']); $stmt->bindValue(2, $_GET['aid']); $stmt->execute(); $stmt->bindColumn(4, $mimeType, PDO::PARAM_STR, 256); $stmt->bindColumn(6, $lob, PDO::PARAM_LOB); $stmt->fetch(PDO::FETCH_BOUND); echo gettype($lob); Expected Result: ---------------- resource Actual Result: -------------- string ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-01-04 13:21:09] u...@php.net See last comment, works with 5.3.4 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
