    oci_bind_array_by_name — Binds a PHP array to an Oracle PL/SQL array parameter

    Description

    oci_bind_array_by_name(
        resource $statement,
        string $param,
        array &$var,
        int $max_array_length,
        int $max_item_length = -1,
        int $type = SQLT_AFC
    ): bool

    Binds the PHP array var to the Oracle placeholder param, which points to an Oracle PL/SQL array. Whether it will be used for input or output will be determined at run-time.

    Parameters

    statement

    A valid OCI statement identifier.

    param

    The Oracle placeholder.

    var

    An array.

    max_array_length

    Sets the maximum length both for incoming and result arrays.

    max_item_length

    Sets maximum length for array items. If not specified or equals to -1, oci_bind_array_by_name() will find the longest element in the incoming array and will use it as the maximum length.

    type

    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.

    Return Values

    Returns true on success or false on failure.
