MYSQL_FETCH_OBJECT(3)							 1						     MYSQL_FETCH_OBJECT(3)

mysql_fetch_object - Fetch a result row as an object

SYNOPSIS
Warning This extension is deprecated as of PHP 5.5.0, and will be removed in the future. Instead, the MySQLi or PDO_MySQL extension should be used. See also MySQL: choosing an API guide and related FAQ for more information. Alternatives to this function include: omysqli_fetch_object(3) o PDOStatement::fetch object mysql_fetch_object (resource $result, [string $class_name], [array $params]) DESCRIPTION
Returns an object with properties that correspond to the fetched row and moves the internal data pointer ahead. o $ result -The result resource that is being evaluated. This result comes from a call to mysql_query(3). o $class_name - The name of the class to instantiate, set the properties of and return. If not specified, a stdClass object is returned. o $params - An optional array of parameters to pass to the constructor for $class_name objects. Returns an object with string properties that correspond to the fetched row, or FALSE if there are no more rows. Example #1 mysql_fetch_object(3) example <?php mysql_connect("hostname", "user", "password"); mysql_select_db("mydb"); $result = mysql_query("select * from mytable"); while ($row = mysql_fetch_object($result)) { echo $row->user_id; echo $row->fullname; } mysql_free_result($result); ?> Example #2 mysql_fetch_object(3) example <?php class foo { public $name; } mysql_connect("hostname", "user", "password"); mysql_select_db("mydb"); $result = mysql_query("select name from mytable limit 1"); $obj = mysql_fetch_object($result, 'foo'); var_dump($obj); ?> Note Performance Speed-wise, the function is identical to mysql_fetch_array(3), and almost as quick as mysql_fetch_row(3) (the difference is insignificant). Note mysql_fetch_object(3) is similar to mysql_fetch_array(3), with one difference - an object is returned, instead of an array. Indi- rectly, that means that you can only access the data by the field names, and not by their offsets (numbers are illegal property names). Note Field names returned by this function are case-sensitive. Note This function sets NULL fields to the PHP NULL value. mysql_fetch_array(3), mysql_fetch_assoc(3), mysql_fetch_row(3), mysql_data_seek(3), mysql_query(3).

mysql_list_tables - List tables in a MySQL database

SYNOPSIS
Warning This function was deprecated in PHP 4.3.0, and will be removed in the future, along with the entirety of the original MySQL exten- sion. Instead, the MySQLi or PDO_MySQL extension should be used. See also MySQL: choosing an API guide and related FAQ for more information. Alternatives to this function include: oSQL Query: SHOW TABLES FROM sometable resource mysql_list_tables (string $database, [resource $link_identifier = NULL]) DESCRIPTION
Retrieves a list of table names from a MySQL database. This function is deprecated. It is preferable to use mysql_query(3) to issue an SQL SHOW TABLES [FROM db_name] [LIKE 'pattern'] statement instead. o $database - The name of the database o $ link_identifier -The MySQL connection. If the link identifier is not specified, the last link opened by mysql_connect(3) is assumed. If no such link is found, it will try to create one as if mysql_connect(3) was called with no arguments. If no connection is found or established, an E_WARNING level error is generated. A result pointer resource on success or FALSE on failure. Use the mysql_tablename(3) function to traverse this result pointer, or any function for result tables, such as mysql_fetch_array(3). +--------+-----------------------------------+ |Version | | | | | | | Description | | | | +--------+-----------------------------------+ | 4.3.7 | | | | | | | This function became deprecated. | | | | +--------+-----------------------------------+ Example #1 mysql_list_tables(3) alternative example <?php $dbname = 'mysql_dbname'; if (!mysql_connect('mysql_host', 'mysql_user', 'mysql_password')) { echo 'Could not connect to mysql'; exit; } $sql = "SHOW TABLES FROM $dbname"; $result = mysql_query($sql); if (!$result) { echo "DB Error, could not list tables "; echo 'MySQL Error: ' . mysql_error(); exit; } while ($row = mysql_fetch_row($result)) { echo "Table: {$row[0]} "; } mysql_free_result($result); ?> Note For backward compatibility, the following deprecated alias may be used: mysql_listtables(3) mysql_list_dbs(3), mysql_tablename(3).
