ibase_execute

(PHP 5, PHP 7 < 7.4.0)

ibase_executeExecute a previously prepared query


Description

ibase_execute ( resource $query , mixed ...$values ) : resource

Execute a query prepared by ibase_prepare().

This is a lot more effective than using ibase_query() if you are repeating a same kind of query several times with only some parameters changing.


Parameters

query
An InterBase query prepared by ibase_prepare().
values


Return Values

If the query raises an error, returns FALSE. If it is successful and there is a (possibly empty) result set (such as with a SELECT query), returns a result identifier. If the query was successful and there were no results, returns TRUE.

Note:

This function returns the number of rows affected by the query (if > 0 and applicable to the statement type). A query that succeeded, but did not affect any rows (e.g. an UPDATE of a non-existent record) will return TRUE.

Examples

Example #1 ibase_execute() example
