pg_fetch_object - Fetch a row as an object

SYNOPSIS
       object pg_fetch_object (resource  $result, [int	$row], [int  $result_type = PGSQL_ASSOC])

DESCRIPTION
       object pg_fetch_object (resource  $result, [int	$row], [string	$class_name], [array  $params])

       pg_fetch_object(3)  returns  an	object	with properties that correspond to the fetched row's field names. It can optionally instantiate an
       object of a specific class, and pass parameters to that class's constructor.

       Note

	      This function sets NULL fields to the PHP NULL value.

	Speed-wise, the function is identical to pg_fetch_array(3), and almost as fast as pg_fetch_row(3) (the difference is insignificant).

PARAMETERS
	      o $result
		- PostgreSQL query result resource, returned by pg_query(3), pg_query_params(3) or pg_execute(3) (among others).

	      o $row
		- Row number in result to fetch. Rows are numbered from 0 upwards. If omitted or NULL, the next row is fetched.

	      o $result_type
		- Ignored and deprecated.

	      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.

RETURN VALUES
	An object with one attribute for each field name in the result. Database NULL values are returned as NULL.

       FALSE is returned if $row exceeds the number of rows in the set, there are no more rows, or on any other error.

EXAMPLES
       Example #1

	      pg_fetch_object(3) example

	      <?php

	      $database = "store";

	      $db_conn = pg_connect("host=localhost port=5432 dbname=$database");
	      if (!$db_conn) {
		echo "Failed connecting to postgres database $database
";
		exit;
	      }

	      $qu = pg_query($db_conn, "SELECT * FROM books ORDER BY author");

	      while ($data = pg_fetch_object($qu)) {
		echo $data->author . " (";
		echo $data->year . "): ";
		echo $data->title . "<br />";
	      }

	      pg_free_result($qu);
	      pg_close($db_conn);

	      ?>
