PHP 8.3.4 Released!

dbase_get_record_with_names

(PHP 5 < 5.3.0, dbase 5, dbase 7)

dbase_get_record_with_names Gets a record from a database as an associative array

Description

dbase_get_record_with_names(resource $database, int $number): array

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

Parameters

database

The database resource, returned by dbase_open() or dbase_create().

number

The index of the record between 1 and dbase_numrecords($dbase_identifier).

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()). Therefore it is not possible to retrieve the value of a field named deleted with this function.

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

  • Dates are left as strings.
  • DateTime values are converted to strings.
  • Integers outside the range PHP_INT_MIN..PHP_INT_MAX are returned as strings.
  • Before dbase 7.0.0, booleans (L) were converted to 1 or 0.

On error, dbase_get_record_with_names() will return false.

Changelog

Version Description
dbase 7.0.0 database is now a resource instead of an int.

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";
}
}
}
?>
