dbase_get_record_with_names

Gets a record from a database as an associative array

Description

array dbase_get_record_with_names ( int $dbase_identifier , int $record_number )

Gets a record from a dBase database as an associative array.

Parameters

dbase_identifier

The database link identifier, returned by dbase_open or dbase_create.

record_number

The index of the record.

Return Values

An associative array with the record. This will also include a key named deleted which is set to 1 if the record has been marked for deletion (see dbase_delete_record).

Each field is converted to the appropriate PHP type, except:

  • Dates are left as strings.
  • Integers that would have caused an overflow (> 32 bits) are returned as strings.

On error, dbase_get_record_with_names will return FALSE.

Examples

Example #1 Listing all the registered members in the database

<?php
// open in read-only mode
$db = dbase_open('/tmp/test.dbf', 0);

if ($db) {
  $record_numbers = dbase_numrecords($db);
  for ($i = 1; $i <= $record_numbers; $i++) {
      $row = dbase_get_record_with_names($db, $i);
      if ($row['ismember'] == 1) {
          echo "Member #$i: " . trim($row['name']) . "\n";
      }
  }
}
?>
