px_new

Create a new paradox object

Description

resource px_new ( void )

Create a new paradox object. You will have to call this function before any further functions. px_new does not create any file on the disk, it just creates an instance of a paradox object. This function must not be called if the object oriented interface is used. Use new paradox_db() instead.

Return Values

Returns FALSE on failure.

Examples

Example #1 Opening a Paradox database

<?php
if(!$pxdoc px_new()) {
  
/* Error handling */
}
$fp fopen("test.db""r");
if(!
px_open_fp($pxdoc$fp)) {
  
/* Error handling */
}
// ...
px_close($pxdoc);
px_delete($pxdoc);
fclose($fp);
?>

If you prefer the object oriented API, then the above example will look like the following.

Example #2 Opening a Paradox database

<?php
$fp 
fopen("test.db""r");
$pxdoc = new paradox_db();
if(!
$pxdoc->open_fp($fp)) {
  
/* Error handling */
}
// ...
$pxdoc->close();
fclose($fp);
?>
