Example #1 oci_field_type_raw() Example
<?php// Create the table with:// CREATE TABLE mytab (number_col NUMBER, varchar2_col varchar2(1), clob_col CLOB, date_col DATE);$conn = oci_connect("hr", "hrpwd", "localhost/XE");if (!$conn) { $m = oci_error(); trigger_error(htmlentities($m['message']), E_USER_ERROR);}$stid = oci_parse($conn, 'select * from mytab');oci_execute($stid, OCI_DESCRIBE_ONLY); // Use OCI_DESCRIBE_ONLY if not fetching rows$n = oci_num_fields($stid);for ($i = 1; $i <= $n; ++$i) { echo oci_field_name($stid, $i) . " is raw type: " . oci_field_type_raw($stid, $i) . "<br>\n";}// Output is:// NUMBER_COL is raw type: 2// VARCHAR2_COL is raw type: 1// CLOB_COL is raw type: 112// DATE_COL is raw type: 12oci_free_statement($stid);oci_close($conn);?>
Notes
Note:
In PHP versions before 5.0.0 you must use ocicolumntyperaw() instead. This name still can be used, it was left as alias of oci_field_type_raw() for downwards compatability. This, however, is deprecated and not recommended.
