ID: 44597 Updated by: sjo...@php.net -Summary: Postgres driver does not prepare booleans correctly Reported By: kenaniah at gmail dot com Status: Open Bug Type: PDO related Operating System: Red Hat 4.1.1 PHP Version: 5.2.6 New Comment:
Currently, every variable is assumed to be PDO_PARAM_STR. This patch changes this to PDO_PARAM_INT or PDO_PARAM_BOOL if the passed variable is a long or a bool, respectively. http://www.gissen.nl/files/bug44597.patch This may break existing scripts, which depend on false being converted to an empty string.

One could reasonably claim that proper detection of parameter types should in fact be part of the functional definition of execute(). Virtually every database interface built on top of PDO works around this boolean "bug" and allows support for mixed content in the parameter array to a prepared statement. IMHO, the PDO core should therefore be no different. Whether classified as a bug or a feature, I believe that this should still be addressed. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-09-21 19:18:21] sjo...@php.net I think this is not a bug but a limitation of execute(): it assumes the values in the array are string. If you want it interpreted differently, you should call bindParam() with a data_type parameter. I filed Bug #49614 "PDOStatement::execute assumes string values in array" to clarify the documentation. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-09-13 20:55:01] kenaniah at gmail dot com This is still reproducible on 5.3.0 paired with PG 8.x ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-09-13 19:08:46] ant at specialops dot ath dot cx I can still reproduce this on PHP 5.3.0 and PostgreSQL 8.4.1. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-06-14 11:53:21] execut3 at gmail dot com The issue is still not fixed, I'm with PHP 5.2.6 on Ubuntu and postgresql 8.3.
