ID: 42414 User updated by: jhml at gmx dot net Reported By: jhml at gmx dot net Status: Open Bug Type: ODBC related Operating System: Linux PHP Version: 5.2.3 New Comment:
I have examined all functions which take the cat argument now, which are: - odbc_tables - odbc_columns - odbc_columnprivileges - odbc_foreignkeys - odbc_primarykeys - odbc_procedurecolumns - odbc_procedures - odbc_specialcolumns - odbc_statistics - odbc_tableprivileges Most of these functions need to have cat == NULL (as long as one doesn't want to specify a catalog) with the Oracle ODBC driver. Interestingly, the follow functions don't have this requirement: - odbc_tables - odbc_procedurecolumns - odbc_procedures So I have created a patch now which sets cat to NULL for the functions which require it. The patch is available at http://www.bettina-attack.de/jonny/php-5.2.3-oracle_compat.diff Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-08-25 11:08:41] jhml at gmx dot net Argh. Same problem with odbc_primarykeys(). Will examine the other functions also and create a new patch... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-08-24 16:27:08] jhml at gmx dot net Tested with MyODBC as well, no problems! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-08-24 13:38:16] jhml at gmx dot net I've tested IBM DB2 (iSeries ODBC driver from IBM), MS SQL (FreeTDS), Sybase (FreeTDS) and Oracle (native ODBC driver from Oracle). Moreover, NULL is also already passed when odbc_columns() is called with only one parameter. The patch may appear ugly but it's the same style as the Access workaround. IMHO it would be cleaner to allow passing a PHP-null to actually become a C-NULL, i.e. not forcing the String cast for null values, but that would be much more intrusive! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-08-24 13:15:14] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Are you sure it doesn't break the other possible drivers..? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-08-24 13:13:42] jhml at gmx dot net Proposed patch: --- php-5.2.3/ext/odbc/php_odbc.c 2007-03-13 01:04:38.000000000 +0100 +++ php-5.2.3-fix_odbc_columns/ext/odbc/php_odbc.c 2007-08-24 14:57:41.000000000 +0200 @@ -2947,6 +2947,11 @@ */ if (table && strlen(table) && schema && !strlen(schema)) schema = NULL; + /* + * Needed to make Oracle happy (Johann Hanne) + */ + if (cat && !strlen(cat)) cat = NULL; + rc = SQLColumns(result->stmt, cat, cat_len, schema, schema_len, ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
