mysql_data_seek

(PHP 4, PHP 5, PECL mysql:1.0)

mysql_data_seek — Déplace le pointeur interne de résultat MySQL

Description

bool mysql_data_seek ( resource $result , int $row_number )

mysql_data_seek() déplace le pointeur interne de résultat, dans le résultat associé à l'identifiant de résultat result_identifier . Il le fait pointer à la ligne row_number . Le prochain appel à une fonction MySQL de récupération de données, comme la fonction mysql_fetch_assoc() retournera cette ligne.

row_number commence à 0. row_number doit être une valeur qui va de 0 à mysql_num_rows() - 1. Cependant, si le résultat est vide, un row_number de 0 échouera avec une erreur E_WARNING et mysql_data_seek() retournera FALSE.

Liste de paramètres

result: La ressource de résultat qui vient d'être évaluée. Ce résultat vient de l'appel à la fonction mysql_query().
row_number: La position de la ligne désirée pour le nouveau pointeur de résultats.

Valeurs de retour

Cette fonction retourne TRUE en cas de succès, FALSE en cas d'échec.

Exemples

/* Récupération des lignes en ordre inverse */
for ($i = mysql_num_rows($result) - 1; $i >= 0; $i--) {
    if (!mysql_data_seek($result, $i)) {
        echo "Ne peut pointer vers la ligne $i : " . mysql_error() . "\n";
        continue;
    }

    if (!($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result))) {
        continue;

    echo $row['nom_famille'] . ' ' . $row['prenom'] . "<br />\n";

mysql_free_result($result);

Here is a simple function to "peek" at the position of the internal pointer in a query result:



function mysql_pointer_position($result_set) {

        $num_rows = mysql_num_rows($result_set);

        $i = 0;

        while($result = mysql_fetch_array($result_set)) {

            $i++;

        }

        $pointer_position = $num_rows - $i;



//Return pointer to original position

        if($pointer_position <= $num_rows - 1) {

            mysql_data_seek($result_set, $pointer_position);

        }

        return $pointer_position;

    }

I needed to "peek" at the next record in order to see if fetching it would go too far.  So I want to do a fetch, followed by seek(-1).

 

I could find no function to move the internal row pointer relative to it's current position, or to retrieve it as a row number as required by mysql_data_seek().  This limits the function's usefulness to resetting the row to 0, unless you track the row number yourself.



If you use a While loop to step through the results, you can increment a tracking index at the bottom of the loop.  But be sure never to use Continue; which would bypass your index.  And document this restriction for the person who needs to maintain your code.  It's probably better to use a For loop, which makes the index explicit.  



In either case be sure to range check the index when you manipulate it.  E.G. When I "peek" at the next record I must check for index>=count (end of data).  Or if I decrement the index, make sure it does not go negative.  Again, document why you are coding it this way, so the next programmer doesn't "correct" the inelegant code.

A helpful note about the 'resource' data type.



Since the 'resource' variable is pointing to a row in a result set at any given time, you can think of it as being passed to this function by reference every time you pass it or assign it to a variable.



<?



$sql = "SELECT * from <table>";

$result = mysql_query($sql);

$temp_result = $result;



while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($temp_result)) {

    // do stuff with $row

}



while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {

    // This code will never run because the 'resource' variable is pointing past the end of the result set,

    // even though it was *not* assigned by reference to $result2.

}



?>



Therefore, the following snipits are functionally identical:



<?



// Start snipit 1



$sql = "SELECT * from <table>";

$result = mysql_query($sql);



while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {

    // do stuff with $row

}



mysql_data_seek($result, 0);



while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {

    // do other stuff with $row

}



// Start snipit 2



$sql = "SELECT * from <table>";

$result = mysql_query($sql);

$temp_result = $result;



while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($temp_result)) {

    // do stuff with $row

}



mysql_data_seek($result, 0);



while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($temp_result)) {

    // do other stuff with $row

}



?>

hello, this script would be easy to understand for those that are novice in php whose want to understand about this function:



the table "user" have 2 columns "id" and "name".

"user" content:

position 0: "id"=195342481 "name"='Arthur'

position 1: "id"=179154675 "name"='John'

>>position 2<<: "id"=157761949 "name"='April' >>third row<<

position 3: "id"=124492684 "name"='Tammy'

position 4: "id"=191346457 "name"='Mike'



<?php

  mysql_connect("localhost", "root")

  mysql_select_db("test");

  $sql = mysql_query("select * from user");

  mysql_data_seek($sql, 2);

  echo "<table border=1>";

  while ($row = mysql_fetch_row($sql)){

    echo "<tr><td>$row[0]</td><td>$row[1]</td></tr>";

  }

  echo "</tabla>";

?>



explanation:

mysql_data_seek move internal result pointer to the third row of table user. Thus mysql_fetch_row will begin by april�s row.

your loop can be done like this as well and i guess this is faster:



$r=mysql_query("select user,id,ip from accounts limit 10");



unset($users); // Just to be sure

while($users[] = mysql_fetch_row);

array_pop($users); // Drop the last entry which is FALSE

/*here is a nice function for converting a mysql result row set into a 2d array, a time saver if need small data from several rows, saves you from having to do Alot of queries... would be nice to have this built into PHP future versions :) */



// simple example query

$r=mysql_query("select user,id,ip from accounts limit 10");



//starts the for loop, using mysql_num_rows() to count total

//amount of rows returned by $r

for($i=0; $i<mysql_num_rows($r); $i++){

             //advances the row in the mysql resource $r

    mysql_data_seek($r,$i);

             //assigns the array keys, $users[row][field]

    $users[$i]=mysql_fetch_row($r);

}



//simple, hope someone can use it :)
