MySQL_DB_Connect is a database connection handler making use of PHP. It shouldn't be too hard to be
able to work on PostgreSQL, MSSql, Oracle, etc. If you require this please change the
mysql_db_connect.inc.php file to suit your needs.
Please make sure you have the following files:
* mysql_db_connect.cfg.php : Database settings
* mysql_db_connect.Functions.txt : Summary of functions
* mysql_db_connect.inc.php : Database handler
* mysql_db_connect.Readme.txt : This file
To get it to work, edit the mysql_db_connect.cfg.php file as follows:
$host : The address where your server is located
$db : The database you want to connect to
$user : The username required to login to the server
$pwd : The password for the user specified above.
$keeplog : Whether a log of all queries should be kept
$logpath : Path where log should be kept
$fullErr : How you want errors to be displayed
$rollBackSup : If your database has transactional support (InnoDB)
In every PHP script you will be using MySQL_DB_Connect add the following code:
require("mysql_db_connect.inc.php");
$databaseLinkVariable = new mysql_db_connect();
To perform a query call:
$databaseLinkVariable->db_qry($query);
To get the number of rows retrieved in the query call:
$numberOfRows = $databaseLinkVariable->row_count();
To retrieve a row from the result set call:
$oneRowFromResult = $databaseLinkVariable->get_data();
The result will be given in a array with indexes using the field names and indexes starting at 0 and ending at the number of fields
minus one. If you retrieve 9 fields with values F1, F2, F3, F4, F5, F6, F7, F8, F9 the array would
look something like this:
$oneRowFromResult:
+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+
| [0] | [1] | [2] | [3] | [4] | [5] | [6] | [7] | [8] |
+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+
| F1 | F2 | F3 | F4 | F5 | F6 | F7 | F8 | F9 |
+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+
To retrieve the names of the fields in the result set call:
$fieldNames = $databaseLinkVariable->get_fields();
The result will be given in an array as above
