mysql_data_seek

(PHP 3, PHP 4, PHP 5)

mysql_data_seek -- Muove il puntatore interno del risultato

Descrizione

bool mysql_data_seek ( resource identificativo_risultato, int numero_riga )

Restituisce TRUE in caso di successo, FALSE in caso di fallimento.

mysql_data_seek() muove il puntatore di riga interno del risultato MySQL associato all'identificativo specificato per puntare ad un determinato numero di riga. La successiva chiamata a mysql_fetch_row() dovrebbe restituire questa riga.

numero_riga inizia da 0. numero_riga dovrebbe essere un valore nell'intervallo che va da 0 a mysql_num_rows - 1.

Nota: La funzione mysql_data_seek() può essere usata solo insieme a mysql_query(), non con mysql_unbuffered_query().

Esempio 1. Esempio seek dati MySQL


<?php

    $connessione = mysql_pconnect("localhost", "utente_mysql", "password_mysql")

        or die("Connessione non riuscita: " . mysql_error());



    mysql_select_db("samp_db")

        or die("Selezione del database non riuscita: " . mysql_error());



    $query = "SELECT cognome, nome FROM amici";

    $risultato = mysql_query($query)

        or die("Query fallita: " . mysql_error());



    /* caricamento righe in ordine inverso */

    for ($i = mysql_num_rows($risultato) - 1; $i >= 0; $i--) {

        if (!mysql_data_seek($risultato, $i)) {

            echo "Non si può eseguire il seek alla riga $i: " . mysql_error() . "\n";

            continue;

        }



        if(!($riga = mysql_fetch_object($risultato)))

            continue;



        echo "$riga->cognome $riga->nome<br />\n";

    }



    mysql_free_result($risultato);

?>

I needed to "peek" at the next record in order to see if fetching it would go too far.  So I want to do a fetch, followed by seek(-1).

 

I could find no function to move the internal row pointer relative to it's current position, or to retrieve it as a row number as required by mysql_data_seek().  This limits the function's usefulness to resetting the row to 0, unless you track the row number yourself.



If you use a While loop to step through the results, you can increment a tracking index at the bottom of the loop.  But be sure never to use Continue; which would bypass your index.  And document this restriction for the person who needs to maintain your code.  It's probably better to use a For loop, which makes the index explicit.  



In either case be sure to range check the index when you manipulate it.  E.G. When I "peek" at the next record I must check for index>=count (end of data).  Or if I decrement the index, make sure it does not go negative.  Again, document why you are coding it this way, so the next programmer doesn't "correct" the inelegant code.

A helpful note about the 'resource' data type.



Since the 'resource' variable is pointing to a row in a result set at any given time, you can think of it as being passed to this function by reference every time you pass it or assign it to a variable.



<?



$sql = "SELECT * from <table>";

$result = mysql_query($sql);

$temp_result = $result;



while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($temp_result)) {

    // do stuff with $row

}



while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {

    // This code will never run because the 'resource' variable is pointing past the end of the result set,

    // even though it was *not* assigned by reference to $result2.

}



?>



Therefore, the following snipits are functionally identical:



<?



// Start snipit 1



$sql = "SELECT * from <table>";

$result = mysql_query($sql);



while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {

    // do stuff with $row

}



mysql_data_seek($result, 0);



while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {

    // do other stuff with $row

}



// Start snipit 2



$sql = "SELECT * from <table>";

$result = mysql_query($sql);

$temp_result = $result;



while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($temp_result)) {

    // do stuff with $row

}



mysql_data_seek($result, 0);



while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($temp_result)) {

    // do other stuff with $row

}



?>

hello, this script would be easy to understand for those that are novice in php whose want to understand about this function:



the table "user" have 2 columns "id" and "name".

"user" content:

position 0: "id"=195342481 "name"='Arthur'

position 1: "id"=179154675 "name"='John'

>>position 2<<: "id"=157761949 "name"='April' >>third row<<

position 3: "id"=124492684 "name"='Tammy'

position 4: "id"=191346457 "name"='Mike'



<?php

  mysql_connect("localhost", "root")

  mysql_select_db("test");

  $sql = mysql_query("select * from user");

  mysql_data_seek($sql, 2);

  echo "<table border=1>";

  while ($row = mysql_fetch_row($sql)){

    echo "<tr><td>$row[0]</td><td>$row[1]</td></tr>";

  }

  echo "</tabla>";

?>



explanation:

mysql_data_seek move internal result pointer to the third row of table user. Thus mysql_fetch_row will begin by april�s row.

your loop can be done like this as well and i guess this is faster:



$r=mysql_query("select user,id,ip from accounts limit 10");



unset($users); // Just to be sure

while($users[] = mysql_fetch_row);

array_pop($users); // Drop the last entry which is FALSE

/*here is a nice function for converting a mysql result row set into a 2d array, a time saver if need small data from several rows, saves you from having to do Alot of queries... would be nice to have this built into PHP future versions :) */



// simple example query

$r=mysql_query("select user,id,ip from accounts limit 10");



//starts the for loop, using mysql_num_rows() to count total

//amount of rows returned by $r

for($i=0; $i<mysql_num_rows($r); $i++){

             //advances the row in the mysql resource $r

    mysql_data_seek($r,$i);

             //assigns the array keys, $users[row][field]

    $users[$i]=mysql_fetch_row($r);

}



//simple, hope someone can use it :)

So you can use it as the equivalent of the reset() call for an array.


eg.


while ($row = mysql_fetch_object($result_01)) 


{


// code goes here


  while ($row = mysql_fetch_object($result_02)) 


  {


   // code goes here.


  }


  mysql_data_seek($result_02,0)


}





Still hoping that there is going to be a better way, like mysql_reset($result).
