fbsql_read_clob -- Read a CLOB from the database
Description
string fbsql_read_clob (string clob_handle, resource
[link_identifier])
Returns: A string containing the CLOB specified by clob_handle.
fbsql_read_clob() reads CLOB data from the
database. If a select statement contains BLOB and/or CLOB
columns FrontBase will return the data directly when data is
fetched. This default behavior can be changed with
fbsql_set_lob_mode() so the fetch functions
will return handles to BLOB and CLOB data. If a handle is
fetched a user must call fbsql_read_clob() to
get the actual CLOB data from the database.
Example 1. fbsql_read_clob() example <?php
$link = fbsql_pconnect ("localhost", "_SYSTEM", "secret")
or die ("Could not connect");
$sql = "SELECT CLOB_COLUMN FROM CLOB_TABLE;";
$rs = fbsql_query($sql, $link);
$row_data = fbsql_fetch_row($rs);
// $row_data[0] will now contain the clob data for teh first row
fbsql_free_result($rs);
$rs = fbsql_query($sql, $link);
fbsql_set_lob_mode($rs, FBSQL_LOB_HANDLE);
$row_data = fbsql_fetch_row($rs);
// $row_data[0] will now contain a handle to the CLOB data in the first row
$clob_data = fbsql_read_clob($row_data[0]);
fbsql_free_result($rs);
