This function appears to work with PL/SQL associative arrays (index-by tables) but I was unable to get it to work with PL/SQL varrays

oci_bind_array_by_name — Vincula un array de PHP con un parámetro de un array de Oracle PL/SQL
$statement,$name,&$var_array,$max_table_length,$max_item_length = -1,$type = SQLT_AFC
Vincular el array de PHP var_array al parámetro de sustitución
de Oracle name, el cual apunta a un array de Oracle PL/SQL.
Se determinará si será usado para entrada o salida en
tiempo de ejecución.
statementUn identificador de sentencia de OCI válido.
nameEl parámetro de sustitución de Oracle.
var_arrayUn array.
max_table_lengthEstablece la longitud máxima para los arrays entrantes y resultantes.
max_item_lengthEstablece la longitud máxima para los elementos del array. Si no se especifica o es igual a -1, oci_bind_array_by_name() buscará el elemento más largo en el array entrante y usará su longitud como valor.
typeDebería usarse para establecer el tipo de los elementos del arrary de PL/SQL. La lista siguiente muestra los tipos disponibles:
SQLT_NUM - para arrays de NUMBER.
SQLT_INT - para arrays de INTEGER (Nota: INTEGER
es en realidad un sinónimo de NUMBER(38), pero el tipo
SQLT_NUM no funcionará en este caso
aunque sean sinónimos).
SQLT_FLT - para arrays de tipo FLOAT.
SQLT_AFC - para arrays de tipo CHAR.
SQLT_CHR - para arrays de tipo VARCHAR2.
SQLT_VCS - para arrays de tipo VARCHAR.
SQLT_AVC - para arrays de tipo CHARZ.
SQLT_STR - para arrays de tipo STRING.
SQLT_LVC - para arrays de tipo LONG VARCHAR.
SQLT_ODT - para arrays de tipo DATE.

?>This function appears to work with PL/SQL associative arrays (index-by tables) but I was unable to get it to work with PL/SQL varraysWe were able to get the example included for the "OCI_BIND_ARRAY_BY_NAME" to work. However, the example is NOT actually binding with a PL/SQL array of any type. It is writing data to an Oracle table named "bind_example". Notice how this table is created. The table does NOT have an array type as one of its fields. Since this is the case, there cannot be any binding to a PL/SQL array because at least one field in the table must be either a VARRAY, NESTED TABLE or ASSOCIATIVE ARRAY data type. We searched the Internet and could not find any examples that actually read from a PL/SQL array type. We were able to get data from a PL/SQL VARRAY data type, but only by using a SELECT statement.
