Reverse order...
id = 3
id = 2
id = 1
Result set order...
id = 1
id = 2
id = 3
Unbuffered result sets
If client memory is a short resource and freeing server resources as early as possible to keep server
load low is not needed, unbuffered results can be used. Scrolling through unbuffered results is not
possible before all rows have been read.
Example 20.84. Navigation through unbuffered results
<?php
$mysqli->real_query("SELECT id FROM test ORDER BY id ASC");
$res = $mysqli->use_result();
echo "Result set order...\n";
while ($row = $res->fetch_assoc()) {
echo " id = " . $row['id'] . "\n";
}
?>
Result set values data types
The
mysqli_query
,
mysqli_real_query
and
mysqli_multi_query
functions are used to
execute non-prepared statements. At the level of the MySQL Client Server Protocol, the command
COM_QUERY
and the text protocol are used for statement execution. With the text protocol, the MySQL
server converts all data of a result sets into strings before sending. This conversion is done regardless
of the SQL result set column data type. The mysql client libraries receive all column values as strings.
No further client-side casting is done to convert columns back to their native types. Instead, all values
are provided as PHP strings.
Example 20.85. Text protocol returns strings by default
<?php
$mysqli = new mysqli("example.com", "user", "password", "database");
if ($mysqli->connect_errno) {
echo "Failed to connect to MySQL: (" . $mysqli->connect_errno . ") " . $mysqli->connect_error;
}
if (!$mysqli->query("DROP TABLE IF EXISTS test") ||
!$mysqli->query("CREATE TABLE test(id INT, label CHAR(1))") ||
!$mysqli->query("INSERT INTO test(id, label) VALUES (1, 'a')")) {
echo "Table creation failed: (" . $mysqli->errno . ") " . $mysqli->error;
}
$res = $mysqli->query("SELECT id, label FROM test WHERE id = 1");
$row = $res->fetch_assoc();
printf("id = %s (%s)\n", $row['id'], gettype($row['id']));
printf("label = %s (%s)\n", $row['label'], gettype($row['label']));
?>
The above example will output:
