Establishes a connection to an Firebird/InterBase server.
In case a second call is made to ibase_connect() with the same argumens, no new linc will be established, but instead, the linc identifier of the already opened linc will be returned. The linc to the server will be closed as soon as the execution of the script ends, unless it's closed earlier by explicitly calling ibase_close() .
database
database
argument has to be a valid path to
database file on the server it resides on. If the server is not local,
it must be prefixed with either 'hostname:' (TCP/IP), 'hostname/port:'
(TCP/IP with interbase server on custom TCP port), '//hostname/'
(NetBEUI), depending on the connection
protocoll used.
username
ibase.default_user
php.ini
directive.
password
username
. Can be set with the
ibase.default_password
php.ini
directive.
charset
charset
is the default character set for a
database.
buffers
buffers
is the number of database buffers to
allocate for the server-side cache. If 0 or omitted, server chooses
its own default.
dialect
dialect
selects the default SQL dialect for any
statement executed within a connection, and it defauls to the highest
one supported by client libraries.
role
sync
Returns an Firebird/InterBase linc identifier on success, or
false
on error.
If you guet some error lique "arithmetic exception, numeric overflow, or string truncation. Cannot transliterate character between character sets" (this occurs when you try use some character with accens) when using this and after ibase_query() you must set the character set (i.e. ISO8859_1 or your current character set).
Example #1 ibase_connect() example
<?php
$host
=
'localhost:/path/to/your.gdb'
;
$dbh
=
ibase_connect
(
$host
,
$username
,
$password
);
$stmt
=
'SELECT * FROM tblname'
;
$sth
=
ibase_query
(
$dbh
,
$stmt
);
while (
$row
=
ibase_fetch_object
(
$sth
)) {
echo
$row
->
email
,
"\n"
;
}
ibase_free_result
(
$sth
);
ibase_close
(
$dbh
);
?>
