[PHP] PDO Prevent duplicate field names?
$sql = SELECT First, Last, Age, 'Foobar' AS Last;; This is a simplified example of a SQL query where we're returning two fields with the same name (Last). When I do a fetch_assoc with this query I only get three fields, as the second Last field over writes the first one. I was hoping there was some method with PDO that would detect that and throw a warning. Maybe some sort of strict mode that would tell me I'm doing something stupid. Is there a way to catch this before it bites me? It already bit me, but moving forward it'd be nice if PHP saw that before I spent an hour debugging it again. - Scott -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

To be short, there's no such function, so you have to: 1) Rename one of the columns 2) or, use fetch_row with numerical indexes instead of fetch_assoc. My real world scenario was this SELECT a.CustID, b.* FROM Customer a LEFT JOIN Sales B USING (CustID) WHERE a.CustID = 1234; In that case, there was a record in Customer, but not in Sales. Sales returned CustID as NULL, which overwrote the one from Customer. It was my mistake, and the SQL was easily fixed. But it woulda been nice to have PHP realize there was a dupe when it was building that array to return to me. -- Scott Baker - Canby Telcom System Administrator - RHCE - 503.266.8253 -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] Overriding session length in existing session?
I have a global header.php file that sets up a bunch of stuff: DB,

session_set_cookie_params($cookie_life,/,.domain.com,true);
session_start();
This is called globally in *all* my scripts. In another script I'd
really like to set the session to expire after the browser closes if a
uses clicks public terminal or something.
I thought I could just set the session cookie to expire after the
browser closes. Can I override the already started session by doing
something like this in my index.php:
#index.php
include('header.php');
setcookie(session_name(), '', 0 ,/,.domain.com);
When I do this the session expires IMMEDIATELY. I must be missing something?

Sent: 03 February 2009 05:03
To: php-general@lists.php.net
Subject: [PHP] Visibility of class constant
I got a weird behaviour of class constant. Suppose I have
Index_Controller
and Another_Controller classes, both extending Controller class. I
define
some constants (let's assume I only have one, call it MY_CONST) in
Controller class to be used by its descendants. In Index_Controller, I
can
freely use MY_CONST without parent:: needed. However, this isn't the
case
with Another_Controller. Without parent:: I got notice Use of
undefined
constant MY_CONST - assumed 'MY_CONST'. How could this happen and
what's the
correct behaviour? It's actually nicer to have it without parent::,
assuming
that constants have protected visibility specifier (which isn't
possible
AFAIK :-( ).
You cannot access a class constant just by the constant name. See
http://docs.php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.paamayim-nekudotayim.php.
you need to use self::MY_CONST, I guess; your code might make it
clearer.
e.g.
class Controller
{
const CONSTANT = 'foobr /';
}
class Index_Controller extends Controller
{
public function __construct()
{
echo CONSTANT; echo 'br/'; // gives warning
echo self::CONSTANT; // foo
echo parent::CONSTANT;// foo
}
}
class Another_Controller extends Controller
{
const CONSTANT = 'barbr /';
public function __construct()
{
echo self::CONSTANT; // bar
echo parent::CONSTANT;// foo
}
}
new Index_Controller would give you the warning you described for
CONSTANT and return 'foo' for self::CONSTANT and parent::CONSTANT as
CONSTANT was inherited. In Another_Controller CONSTANT is overridden so
self::CONSTANT would be 'bar' and parent::CONSTANT would be 'foo'.

Rather than hand typing in phpMyAdmin, I would like a way to loop through all fields and update them to allow nulls My Beginning attempt needs help... $i = 1; while ($i = 100): // how do I word this to just change whatever field we are on to allow nulls? $sql = 'ALTER TABLE `mytable` ?*update*? `'.$???WhatEverField??[$i].'` ?ALLOWNULL?;'; //mysql_query($sql); $result = mysql_query($sql) or die(br /br / Could not renumber dB $sql br /br / . mysql_error()); $i++; endwhile; Thanks in advance Hi, The MySQL syntax to alter a column is: ALTER TABLE `table` MODIFY `column` BIGINT NOT NULL; [ http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/alter-table.html ] The sql statement SHOW COLUMNSFROM `table`; [ http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/show-columns.html ] will give you a list of all the fields with there type, default values, null etc... You can then use this in the loop to find all the fields where null=NO. Warning from the manual: When you change a data type using CHANGE or MODIFY, MySQL tries to convert existing column values to the new type as well as possible. Warning This conversion may result in alteration of data. For example, if you shorten a string column, values may be truncated. To prevent the operation from succeeding if conversions to the new data type would result in loss of data, enable strict SQL mode before using ALTER TABLE (see Section 5.1.6, “SQL Modes”). I don't think this will affect you but bare it in mind. Regards Ian -- You can also retrieve the field types with: SELECT COLUMN_TYPE FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS WHERE COLUMN_NAME = 'whatever'; Which might help the programmatic approach.

I'd like to be able to read as many of the major video formats (AVI, XVID,

ffmpeg is probably the best bet. i believe it has an option to get
video info and not try to process it.
also look at the mencoder/mplayer suite of tools.
maybe even transcode.

Hi all,
I am having problems with a connection to a mysql database.
I am using
function con()
{
mysql_connect(localhost,user,pass) or die(mysql_error());
mysql_select_db(tava) or die(mysql_error());
}
Now, when I call the _function_ (!)
con() or die(no con);
I get the no con output.
When I call the mysql_connect and mysql_select directly before
executing a
query, I get some DB output. But that won't work when I am using the
function...
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers!
Chris
It's a bit of a long shot but are you using variables in the function
which might be out of scope?

Subject: [SPAM] [PHP] FIFO files on PHP?
Importance: Low
I'm trying to build a queue out using FIFO files (someone on the MySQL
list suggested checking them out instead of using the database), but
I'm running into a problem because of the synchronous fwrite call.
Here's the code:
$fifoFile = '/tmp/fifo';
if (!file_exists($fifoFile)) {
posix_mkfifo($fifoFile, 0600);
}
$fp = fopen($fifoFile, w);
fwrite($fp, content);
fclose($fp);
But this will block until something actually reads the pipe. Is there
any way to write to the pipe, then go away as opposed to waiting until
something consumes it? Otherwise, I may just go back to a database
table.
Thanks,
Waynn

Fifo nodes are equivalent to a pipe (|) and have no size on the file
system and therefore the write won't finish until some process reads
from the node. See the man page http://linux.die.net/man/7/fifo .

I think fopen($ourFileName, 'a') will do what you want.
From Alice's code:
$ourFileName = hello.txt;
$ourFileHandle = fopen($ourFileName, 'wb') or die(can't open file);
So... she is not, in fact, trying to write a file over HTTP. She is reading a
file via HTTP and writing something pertaining to it on the local file system.
Also, please refrain from top-posting. It makes the posts get very confusing.

Sorry about the top posting, just habit. I'll stop doing it.
From Alice's code:
$newFileName=http://www.yoursite.com/hello.txt;;
echo $newFileName;
$result=rename($ourFileName, $newFileName);
$ourFileHandle = fopen($ourFileName, 'wb') or die(can't open file);
// Loop through our array, show HTML source as HTML source; and line numbers
too.
foreach ($lines as $line_num = $line) {
echo pLine #b{$line_num}/b : . htmlspecialchars($line) . /p;
$ourFileHandle = fopen($newFileName, 'wb') or die(can't open file);
$content=fwrite($ourFileHandle, htmlspecialchars($line));
..
The fwrite is $ourFileHandle which on the previous line is set to $newFileName
which is http://www.yoursite.com/hello.txt.
I might have missed the point (I regularly do) but it looks like http to me.

[PHP] APC + PHP Problem (apc_fcntl_lock failed: Bad file descriptor)
Hello, I am running a production server with APC and php. We recently had a crash where APC bombed out. When it does this, the server serves empty, white pages. Here is what the error_log says.

And so it goes on until apache was restarted. I have not yet found a resolution for this. There are no calls made to apc_store() on the server. It is solely script caching. I have seen bug reports on this: http://pecl.php.net/bugs/bug.php?id=4769 http://pecl.php.net/bugs/bug.php?id=9745 After looking at these, I think what is happening is the cache is filling up, and when it expunge()s it gets in a loop, php kills the process after the 30sec timeout, and the lock is left. Then no more subsequent requests can be served. Has anyone else experienced this, and does anyone know of a fix for this? I am running PHP 5.2.5, and APC 3.0.15. This is the PHP info for APC.

[PHP] $_SESSION v. Cookies
Dear PHP List, PHP 5, Apache2, MySQL 5, running on Ubuntu, viewing deving with FireFox and Konqueror (Linux). I am building a site with multiple tools and want to pass variables throughout them all. Before, I was passing variables using hidden HTML Form tags, but the site has grown too large for this tactic, so I went to using $_SESSION. However, when I started using $_SESSION, my site loads 3-5 times slower then before. A page that queried MySQL and built itself in 3-5 seconds was now taking 15-20. While more has changed then just $_SESSION, it is really the only significant difference. Is $_SESSION slowing down my site? Is there a faster alternative to global variables then using $_SESSION? Are using regular cookies faster? Any help is appreciated. Thanks, Scott -- Scott Campbell If you do what you've always done, you'll get what you've always gotten.

a 64bit unsigned int is best, but that would only work properly on 64bit

and I suppose that by 2038 there will be another option.

Answer some of those questions, look up design patterns (even on wikipedia to get an overview) and buy some books to see solid examples. If you suspect that you need to use a specific pattern, or are interested in how to implement a specific pattern, write some throwaway code to do it and ask opinions.

Re: [PHP] Sending SMS via PHP
On Wed, 2008-02-20 at 21:01 -0800, Nick Stinemates wrote: Do you need to receive SMS? If you need to receive SMS, you will need to host your own GSM device or modem so that people can send you SMS. If not, you can just use internet SMS gateways like clickatell to do the work, and post to them by HTTP, XML or email. The cost is about 6-8 cents per SMS. There are cheaper services, but not always reliable. If you need to host your own GSM device, you can use software like http://www.kannel.org (GPL Open Source) or http://www.visualgsm.com. The thing with SMS is volume. Most commercial (bulk SMS) service providers do provide a return path at a price, but this can get really expensive especially at low volumes. What you need to do is ask yourself whether you are going to do high volume SMS or not, and look at when do the commercial providers become more economical? What a lot of people do, is sign up for an account and end up sending only 50 or so SMS a month, which is silly, when for the same price as a month or two's subscription, you could buy your own GSM modem and a prepaid SIM card and do it for half the price yourself. --Paul All Email originating from UWC is covered by disclaimer http://www.uwc.ac.za/portal/public/portal_services/disclaimer.htm -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
