ID: 26738 Updated by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reported By: mbaranidharan at yahoo dot com -Status: Assigned +Status: Closed Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Operating System: * PHP Version: 4.3.4 Assigned To: tony2001 New Comment:
Fixed since OCI8 release 1.2 and PHP release 5.1.2. You can use oci_bind_array_by_name() to bind PL/SQL arrays. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-06-30 11:33:07] svjoy at yandex dot ru Absolutely agree this is a serious problem. The way I am using to overcome this - temporary tables. But this requires another statement/cursor/parse and overhead. Many other languages HAVE the possibility. I cant understand why PHP doesn't. There is a great need for the way to pass structured data directly from PL/SQL environment to PHP (more preferrable, to native PHP array, but not fetchable Oracle-native). If I get such volume of structured data that can be allocated in RAM, why sholud I use cursors and other DBMS-related features? Why cant I get it in native PHP data type and forget about DBMS and release its resources? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-06-14 17:19:47] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please *do not* add any comments to the report if they are not related to the current bug.

" UTL_PC_CA_PATCH.patch_raport('TST', 21511, :data); ". "END;"); $data = ocinewcollection($conn, 'VARCHAR2TABTYPE'); ociBindByName($stmt, ":data", &$data, -1, OCI_B_NTY); ociExecute($stmt, OCI_DEFAULT); echo "SIZE: ".$data->size."<BR>"; echo $data->getelem(1); ocilogoff($conn); " The result is: " SIZE: " Can you explain me why $data is empty? 1. Type VARCHAR2TABTYPE is defined on users schema. 2. I'm sure that PL/SQL procedure returns table containg several elements in ":data". ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-03-05 08:05:08] mbaranidharan at yahoo dot com Hi is there a solution available for this prob. Pls let me know. I have a c++ code which uses oracle OCI library to call the package and get me the result as array. Is there any detailed example available to create php extension in c++ which returns a array. Pls let me know.
