Hi all,
In the 4.0 manual, section F.1.1 "Changes in release 4.0" it says:
"Added SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS and FOUND_ROWS(). This makes it possible to know how many
rows a query would have returned without a LIMIT clause."
Unfortunately, I can't find any other references to FOUND_ROWS() in the manual, or
when I do a search for it in the documentation on the MySQL site.
This function would be very handy for me in an application I'm working on.
I tried it in the client, for example:
mysql> select col1, col2
-> from tbl
-> where col2 > 5
-> limit 10;
And I got 10 rows back.
I then did:
mysql> select found_rows();
-> 10
then;
mysql> select col1, col2
-> from tbl
-> where col2 > 5
and got back 32 rows
mysql> select found_rows();
-> 32
This doesn't seems to be working as the brief description would seem to indicate.
What am I missing?
Thanks!
/Rob
