Fetches a result, optionally limited to max_rows.
result_idA valid result id returned by sesam_query().
max_rows
Note that the amount of memory used up by a large query may be
gigantic. Use the max_rows parameter to
limit the maximum number of rows returned, unless you are
absolutely sure that your result will not use up all available
memory.
Returns a mixed array with the query result entries, optionally
limited to a maximum of max_rows rows.
Note that both row and column indexes are zero-based.
Table 1. Mixed result set returned by sesam_fetch_result()
| Array Element | Contents |
|---|---|
| int $arr["count"] | number of columns in result set (or zero if this was an "immediate" query) |
| int $arr["rows"] |
number of rows in result set (between zero and
max_rows)
|
| bool $arr["truncated"] |
TRUE if the number of rows was at least
max_rows, FALSE
otherwise. Note that even when this is
TRUE, the next
sesam_fetch_result() call may return zero
rows because there are no more result entries.
|
| mixed $arr[col][row] | result data for all the fields at row(row) and column(col), (where the integer index row is between 0 and $arr["rows"]-1, and col is between 0 and $arr["count"]-1). Fields may be empty, so you must check for the existence of a field by using the php isset() function. The type of the returned fields depend on the respective SQL type declared for its column (see SESAM overview for the conversions applied). SESAM "multiple fields" are "inlined" and treated like a sequence of columns. |
