Instead of requiring the type to be determined in advance by the
describer function and then requiring get_col to return a buffer
of appropriate type, allow get_col to return an arbitrary zval.
See UPGRADING.INTERNALS for a more detailed description of the
change.
This makes the result fetching simpler, more efficient and more
flexible. The general possibility already existed via the special
PDO_PARAM_ZVAL type, but the usage was very inconvenient and/or
inefficient. Now it's possible to easily implement behavior like
"return int if it fits, otherwise string" and to avoid any kind
of complex management of temporary buffers.
This also fixes bug #40913 (our second highest voted bug of all
time, for some reason). PARAM_LOB result bindings will now
consistently return a stream resource, independently of the used
database driver.
I've tried my best to update all PDO drivers for this change, but
some of the changes may be broken, as I cannot test or even build
some of these drivers (in particular PDO dblib and PDO oci).
Fixes are appreciated -- a working CI setup would be even more
appreciated ;)
Generate a param count mismatch error even if the query contains
no placeholders.
Additionally we shouldn't HANDLE errors from pdo_parse_params,
which are always reported via raise_impl_error. Doing so results
in duplicate error messages.
Followup to previous changes:
* Use camel case, as PDO uses a camel case OO API.
* Use &$var instead of &$bind_var or &$param.
* Use $column instead of $index. We have cases (both inside PDO
and in other DB exts) where columns can also be represented as
strings, so $column is the safer generic name.
Closes GH-6272.
Also changing the function signatures to accept variadic args
for the fetch params. If we're already breaking Doctrine anyway,
we may as well do it properly.
Userland classes that implement Traversable must do so either
through Iterator or IteratorAggregate. The same requirement does
not exist for internal classes: They can implement the internal
get_iterator mechanism, without exposing either the Iterator or
IteratorAggregate APIs. This makes them usable in get_iterator(),
but incompatible with any Iterator based APIs.
A lot of internal classes do this, because exposing the userland
APIs is simply a lot of work. This patch alleviates this issue by
providing a generic InternalIterator class, which acts as an
adapater between get_iterator and Iterator, and can be easily
used by many internal classes. At the same time, we extend the
requirement that Traversable implies Iterator or IteratorAggregate
to internal classes as well.
Closes GH-5216.
This patch removes the so called local variables defined per
file basis for certain editors to properly show tab width, and
similar settings. These are mainly used by Vim and Emacs editors
yet with recent changes the once working definitions don't work
anymore in Vim without custom plugins or additional configuration.
Neither are these settings synced across the PHP code base.
A simpler and better approach is EditorConfig and fixing code
using some code style fixing tools in the future instead.
This patch also removes the so called modelines for Vim. Modelines
allow Vim editor specifically to set some editor configuration such as
syntax highlighting, indentation style and tab width to be set in the
first line or the last 5 lines per file basis. Since the php test
files have syntax highlighting already set in most editors properly and
EditorConfig takes care of the indentation settings, this patch removes
these as well for the Vim 6.0 and newer versions.
With the removal of local variables for certain editors such as
Emacs and Vim, the footer is also probably not needed anymore when
creating extensions using ext_skel.php script.
Additionally, Vim modelines for setting php syntax and some editor
settings has been removed from some *.phpt files. All these are
mostly not relevant for phpt files neither work properly in the
middle of the file.
