Ingres Functions
PHP Manual

ingres_fetch_assoc

Fetch a row of result into an associative array

Description

array ingres_fetch_assoc ( resource $result )

This function is stores the data fetched from a query executed using ingres_query in an associative array, using the field names as keys.

With regard to speed, the function is identical to ingres_fetch_object, and almost as quick as ingres_fetch_row (the difference is insignificant).

By default, arrays created by ingres_fetch_assoc start from position 1 and not 0 as with other DBMS extensions. The starting position can be adjusted to 0 using the configuration parameter ingres.array_index_start.

Note: Related Configurations

See also the ingres.array_index_start, ingres.fetch_buffer_size and ingres.utf8 directives in Runtime Configuration.

Parameters

result

The query result identifier

Return Values

Returns an associative array that corresponds to the fetched row, or FALSE if there are no more rows

Examples

while ($row = ingres_fetch_assoc($result)) {

    echo $row["fullname"];
}
?>
