odbc_data_source — Returns information about available DSNs

Description

odbc_data_source ( resource $connection_id , int $fetch_type ) : array

This function will return the list of available DSN (after calling it several times).

Parameters

connection_id

The ODBC connection identifier, see odbc_connect() for details.

fetch_type

The fetch_type can be one of two constant types: SQL_FETCH_FIRST, SQL_FETCH_NEXT. Use SQL_FETCH_FIRST the first time this function is called, thereafter use the SQL_FETCH_NEXT.

Return Values

Returns FALSE on error, an array upon success, and NULL after fetching the last available DSN.

Examples

Example #1 List available DSNs

<?php$conn = odbc_connect('dsn', 'user', 'pass');$dsn_info = odbc_data_source($conn, SQL_FETCH_FIRST);while ($dsn_info) {    print_r($dsn_info);    $dsn_info = odbc_data_source($conn, SQL_FETCH_NEXT);}?>

The above example will output something similar to:

Array
(
    [server] => dsn
    [description] => ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server
)
Array
(
    [server] => other_dsn
    [description] => Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb, *.accdb)
)
