LXXVI. mSQL Functions

Introduction

These functions allow you to access mSQL database servers. More information about mSQL can be found at http://www.hughes.com.au/.

Installation

In order to have these functions available, you must compile PHP with msql support by using the --with-msql[=DIR] option. DIR is the mSQL base install directory, defaults to /usr/local/msql3.

Note to Win32 Users: In order to enable this module on a Windows environment, you must copy msql.dll from the DLL folder of the PHP/Win32 binary package to the SYSTEM32 folder of your windows machine. (Ex: C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32 or C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32)

Runtime Configuration

The behaviour of these functions is affected by settings in php.ini.

Table 1. mSQL configuration options

Name	Default	Changeable
msql.allow_persistent	"On"	PHP_INI_SYSTEM
msql.max_persistent	"-1"	PHP_INI_SYSTEM
msql.max_links	"-1"	PHP_INI_SYSTEM

For further details and definitions of the PHP_INI_* constants, see the Appendix H.

Here's a short explanation of the configuration directives.

msql.allow_persistent boolean: Whether to allow persistent mSQL connections.
msql.max_persistent integer: The maximum number of persistent mSQL connections per process.
msql.max_links integer: The maximum number of mSQL connections per process, including persistent connections.

Resource Types

There are two resource types used in the mSQL module. The first one is the link identifier for a database connection, the second a resource which holds the result of a query.

Predefined Constants

The constants below are defined by this extension, and will only be available when the extension has either been compiled into PHP or dynamically loaded at runtime.

MSQL_ASSOC (integer)
MSQL_NUM (integer)
MSQL_BOTH (integer)

Examples

This simple example shows how to connect, execute a query, print resulting rows and disconnect from a mSQL database.

Example 1. mSQL usage example


<?php
/* Connecting, selecting database */
$link = msql_connect('localhost', 'username', 'password')
    or die('Could not connect : ' . msql_error($link));

msql_select_db('database', $link)
    or die('Could not select database');

/* Issue SQL query */
$query = 'SELECT * FROM my_table';
$result = msql_query($query, $link) or die('Query failed : ' . msql_error($link));

/* Printing results in HTML */
echo "<table>\n";
while ($row = msql_fetch_array($result, MSQL_ASSOC)) {
    echo "\t<tr>\n";
    foreach ($row as $col_value) {
        echo "\t\t<td>$col_value</td>\n";
    }
    echo "\t</tr>\n";
}
echo "</table>\n";

/* Free result set */
msql_free_result($result);

/* Close connection */
msql_close($link);
?>
