Re: [PHP-DB] [PDO] Number of rows found by Select
So would it be possible to write a select() function to handle the wierdness? I'm attempting to write one but I'm getting buffered query errors. This function is part of a Database Manager class and is supposed to return a PDO::Statement with the number of rows being stored in a referenced paramater. Error: 'SQLSTATE[HY000]: General error: 2014 Cannot execute queries while other unbuffered queries are active. Consider using PDOStatement::fetchAll().

Re: [PHP-DB] [PDO] Number of rows found by Select
Ick.. this is why I don't use OOP DBA libraries.. Uhm.. without spending a bit of time learning more about PDO, I'd be hard pressed to answer this one. Why are you getting issues with asynchronous unbuffered queries? If they're unbuffered, how is the code execution continuing before you get data returned? Seems weird to me, but I'm probably misunderstanding the error message. -Micah On Wednesday 09 November 2005 9:21 am, Rob C wrote: So would it be possible to write a select() function to handle the wierdness?

Re: [PHP-DB] [PDO] Number of rows found by Select
Cracked it! The buffer command (setAttribute(PDO::MYSQL_ATTR_USE_BUFFERED_QUERY, TRUE)) needs to be sent to the PDO object, not PDO::Statement objects. The documentation is wrong here, in a number of ways. This is the function that (fingers crossed) runs a SELECT query and returns the statement, while setting the variable passed as the second parameter to the number of rows. If no second paramater is passed, of course nothing is set and function avoids unnecessary DB calls. found_rows() returns the total number of turns regardless of any LIMIT clause in the SQL so if you use LIMIT, pass the same number as the last parameter. Offset doesn't matter. Example Call (notice chopped SQL, no SELECT): $c = -1; $s = DM::select( '* FROM foo WHERE bar 40 LIMIT 4 OFFSET 2', $c, 4); var_dump($s-fetchAll()); # Normal dump of found data var_dump($c); # The number of rows found, at most 4. Function: public static function select($sql, $count = NULL, $limit = NULL) { $db = self::handle(); # Get PDO $sql = 'SELECT '.(!is_null($count)?'SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS ':'').$sql; try { $stmt = $db-prepare($sql); $stmt-execute(); if (!is_null($count)) { $rows = $db-prepare('SELECT found_rows() AS rows'); $rows-execute(); $rows_array = $rows-fetch(PDO::FETCH_NUM); $rows-closeCursor(); $count = $rows_array[0]; if (!is_null($limit) $count $limit) { $count = $limit; } } } catch (PDOException $e) { # todo } return $stmt; } Rob Rob C wrote: So would it be possible to write a select() function to handle the wierdness?
