oci_bind_array_by_name — Binds a PHP array to an Oracle PL/SQL array parameter
Description
Binds the PHP array var_array to the Oracle placeholder name, which points to an Oracle PL/SQL array. Whether it will be used for input or output will be determined at run-time.
Parameters
- statement
-
A valid OCI statement identifier.
- name
-
The Oracle placeholder.
- var_array
-
An array.
- max_table_length
-
Sets the maximum length both for incoming and result arrays.
- max_item_length
-
Sets maximum length for array items. If not specified or equals to -1, oci_bind_array_by_name() will find the longest element in the incoming array and will use it as the maximum length.
- type
-
Should be used to set the type of PL/SQL array items. See list of available types below:
-
SQLT_NUM - for arrays of NUMBER.
-
SQLT_INT - for arrays of INTEGER (Note: INTEGER it is actually a synonym for NUMBER(38), but SQLT_NUM type won't work in this case even though they are synonyms).
-
SQLT_FLT - for arrays of FLOAT.
-
SQLT_AFC - for arrays of CHAR.
-
SQLT_CHR - for arrays of VARCHAR2.
-
SQLT_VCS - for arrays of VARCHAR.
-
SQLT_AVC - for arrays of CHARZ.
-
SQLT_STR - for arrays of STRING.
-
SQLT_LVC - for arrays of LONG VARCHAR.
-
SQLT_ODT - for arrays of DATE.
-
Return Values
Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.
