Bug description: msql_fetch_row() and msql_fetch_array() dropping columns with
NULL values
Description:
------------
msql_fetch_row() and msql_fetch_array() silently drop columns that contain
NULL values. It's important to retrieve all data from a row, even if it's
NULL. oci8 does this just fine.
While there's a comment in the msql_fetch_array() documentation to watch
out for items that have NULL/0/'' values, it doesn't exactly say what the
problem is and it only talks about results that have only one column.
Reproduce code:
---------------
$con = msql_connect();
$db = msql_select_db('ptdb', $con);
msql_query('CREATE TABLE blah (i INT, c CHAR(5))', $con);
msql_query("INSERT INTO blah VALUES (1, 'a')", $con);
msql_query("INSERT INTO blah VALUES (2, NULL)", $con);
msql_query("INSERT INTO blah VALUES (NULL, 'c')", $con);
$result = msql_query('SELECT * FROM blah', $con);
while ($arr = msql_fetch_array($result, MSQL_ASSOC)) {
var_dump($arr);
echo "\n";
}
msql_query('DROP TABLE blah', $con);
Expected result:
----------------
array(2) {
["i"]=>
string(1) "1"
["c"]=>
string(1) "a"
}
array(2) {
["i"]=>
string(1) "2"
["c"]=>
NULL
}
array(2) {
["a"]=>
NULL
["c"]=>
string(1) "c"
}
Actual result:
--------------
array(2) {
["i"]=>
string(1) "1"
["c"]=>
string(1) "a"
}
array(1) {
["i"]=>
string(1) "2"
}
array(1) {
["c"]=>
string(1) "c"
}
