ID: 21279 Updated by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reported By: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Bug Type: ODBC related Operating System: Windows PHP Version: 4.3.0 New Comment:
Which other API's are you talking about? Oracle? It's the only other extension that uses fetch into really. As for the statement, there is no way for ODBC to really tell either. The API itself defines this to be rather ambiguous so it becomes difficult to deal with. At this time the result leaves it to the PHP user to decide if one is really an emtpy string or NULL rather than the PHP engine. I tend to think this is a better solution. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-12-29 19:47:04] [EMAIL PROTECTED] odbc_fetch_into returns empty strings for columns with NULL values. This makes it impossible to distinguish whether a result column value is a real empty string or a NULL, unlike with API functions for the same purpose but for other databases. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=21279&edit=1
