# oci_bind_array_by_name

(no version information, might be only in CVS)

oci_bind_array_by_name -- Binds PHP array to Oracle PL/SQL array by name

## Description

bool oci_bind_array_by_name ( resource stmt, string name, array &var_array, int max_table_length [, int max_item_length [, int type]] )

> Note: This function is available since OCI8 release 1.2 and PHP release 5.1.2.

oci_bind_array_by_name() binds the PHP array var_array to the Oracle placeholder name, which points to Oracle PL/SQL array. Whether it will be used for input or output will be determined at run-time. The max_table_length parameter sets the maximum length both for incoming and result arrays. Parameter max_item_length sets maximum length for array items. If max_item_length was not specified or equals to -1, oci_bind_array_by_name() will use find the longest element in the incoming array and will use it as maximum length for array items. type parameter should be used to set the type of PL/SQL array items. See list of available types below.

- `SQLT_NUM` - for arrays of NUMBER.

- `SQLT_INT` - for arrays of INTEGER (Note: INTEGER it is actually a synonym for NUMBER(38), but `SQLT_NUM` type won't work in this case even though they are synonyms).

- `SQLT_FLT` - for arrays of FLOAT.

- `SQLT_AFC` - for arrays of CHAR.

- `SQLT_CHR` - for arrays of VARCHAR2.

- `SQLT_VCS` - for arrays of VARCHAR.

- `SQLT_AVC` - for arrays of CHARZ.

- `SQLT_STR` - for arrays of STRING.

- `SQLT_LVC` - for arrays of LONG VARCHAR.

- `SQLT_ODT` - for arrays of DATE.

`<?php $c = oci_connect("scott", "tiger"); $create = "CREATE TABLE bind_example(name VARCHAR(20))"; $statement = oci_parse($c, $create); oci_execute($statement); $create_pkg = " CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE ARRAYBINDPKG1 AS TYPE ARRTYPE IS TABLE OF VARCHAR(20) INDEX BY BINARY_INTEGER; PROCEDURE iobind(c1 IN OUT ARRTYPE); END ARRAYBINDPKG1;"; $statement = oci_parse($c, $create_pkg); oci_execute($statement); $create_pkg_body = " CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY ARRAYBINDPKG1 AS CURSOR CUR IS SELECT name FROM bind_example; PROCEDURE iobind(c1 IN OUT ARRTYPE) IS BEGIN FOR i IN 1..5 LOOP INSERT INTO bind_example VALUES (c1(i)); END LOOP; IF NOT CUR%ISOPEN THEN OPEN CUR; END IF; FOR i IN REVERSE 1..5 LOOP FETCH CUR INTO c1(i); IF CUR%NOTFOUND THEN CLOSE CUR; EXIT; END IF; END LOOP; END iobind; END ARRAYBINDPKG1;"; $statement = oci_parse($c, $create_pkg_body); oci_execute($statement); $statement = oci_parse($c, "BEGIN ARRAYBINDPKG1.iobind(:c1); END;"); $array = array("one", "two", "three", "four", "five"); oci_bind_array_by_name($statement, ":c1", $array, 5, -1, SQLT_CHR); oci_execute($statement); var_dump($array); ?>`
