From: vincent at lycoops dot be Operating system: PHP version: Irrelevant Package: MySQLi related Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description:Add fetching methods
Description: ------------ I think it'd be great if there were a method like PDO's PDOStatement::fetch($fetch_style) method for mysqli_statement. Passing variables by reference is not always easy, espacially if you don't know how many fields are being selected or if you want to manipulate some fields. I (and a lot of people) use PDO only because mysqli is missing this feature, which exists in PDOStatement and mysqli_result. I think the best way would be the following to be compatible with mysqli_result: $statement->fetch_array(MYSQLI_ASSOC); (and all the other fetching methods) Best regards Vincent -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=63884&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63884&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63884&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63884&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63884&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63884&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63884&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63884&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63884&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63884&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63884&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63884&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63884&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63884&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63884&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63884&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63884&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63884&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63884&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63884&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63884&r=mysqlcfg
