lot of people don't like how bind_result works with prepared statements! it requires you to pass long list of parameters which will be loaded with column value when the function being called.
To solve this, i used call_user_func_array function and result_metadata functions. which make easy and automatically returns an array of all columns results stored in an array with column names.
please don't forget to change setting variables with your own credentials:
<?php
$host = 'localhost';
$user = 'root';
$pass = '1234';
$data = 'test';
$mysqli = new mysqli($host, $user, $pass, $data);
/* check connection */
if (mysqli_connect_errno()) {
printf("Connect failed: %s\n", mysqli_connect_error());
exit();
}
if ($stmt = $mysqli->prepare("SELECT * FROM sample WHERE t2 LIKE ?")) {
$tt2 = '%';
$stmt->bind_param("s", $tt2);
$stmt->execute();
$meta = $stmt->result_metadata();
while ($field = $meta->fetch_field())
{
$params[] = &$row[$field->name];
}
call_user_func_array(array($stmt, 'bind_result'), $params);
while ($stmt->fetch()) {
foreach($row as $key => $val)
{
$c[$key] = $val;
}
$result[] = $c;
}
$stmt->close();
}
$mysqli->close();
print_r($result);
?>
mysqli_stmt::bind_result
mysqli_stmt_bind_result
(PHP 5)
mysqli_stmt::bind_result -- mysqli_stmt_bind_result — Binds variables to a prepared statement for result storage
Description
Object oriented style (method):
Procedural style:
Binds columns in the result set to variables.
When mysqli_stmt_fetch() is called to fetch data, the MySQL client/server protocol places the data for the bound columns into the specified variables var1, ... .
Note: Note that all columns must be bound after mysqli_stmt_execute() and prior to calling mysqli_stmt_fetch(). Depending on column types bound variables can silently change to the corresponding PHP type.
A column can be bound or rebound at any time, even after a result set has been partially retrieved. The new binding takes effect the next time mysqli_stmt_fetch() is called.
Parameters
- stmt
-
Procedural style only: A statement identifier returned by mysqli_stmt_init().
- var1
-
The variable to be bound.
Return Values
Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.
Examples
Example #1 Object oriented style
<?php
$mysqli = new mysqli("localhost", "my_user", "my_password", "world");
if (mysqli_connect_errno()) {
printf("Connect failed: %s\n", mysqli_connect_error());
exit();
}
/* prepare statement */
if ($stmt = $mysqli->prepare("SELECT Code, Name FROM Country ORDER BY Name LIMIT 5")) {
$stmt->execute();
/* bind variables to prepared statement */
$stmt->bind_result($col1, $col2);
/* fetch values */
while ($stmt->fetch()) {
printf("%s %s\n", $col1, $col2);
}
/* close statement */
$stmt->close();
}
/* close connection */
$mysqli->close();
?>
Example #2 Procedural style
<?php
$link = mysqli_connect("localhost", "my_user", "my_password", "world");
/* check connection */
if (!$link) {
printf("Connect failed: %s\n", mysqli_connect_error());
exit();
}
/* prepare statement */
if ($stmt = mysqli_prepare($link, "SELECT Code, Name FROM Country ORDER BY Name LIMIT 5")) {
mysqli_stmt_execute($stmt);
/* bind variables to prepared statement */
mysqli_stmt_bind_result($stmt, $col1, $col2);
/* fetch values */
while (mysqli_stmt_fetch($stmt)) {
printf("%s %s\n", $col1, $col2);
}
/* close statement */
mysqli_stmt_close($stmt);
}
/* close connection */
mysqli_close($link);
?>
