Firebird/InterBase Functions

简介

Firebird/InterBase is a relational database offering many ANSI SQL-92 features that runs on Linux, Windows, and a variety of Unix platforms. Firebird/InterBase offers excellent concurrency, high performance, and powerful language support for stored procedures and triggers. It has been used in production systems, under a variety of names since 1981.

InterBase is the name of the closed-source variant of this RDBMS that was developed by Borland/Inprise. More information about InterBase is available at » http://www.borland.com/interbase/.

Firebird is a commercially independent project of C and C++ programmers, technical advisors and supporters developing and enhancing a multi-platform relational database management system based on the source code released by Inprise Corp (now known as Borland Software Corp) under the InterBase Public License v.1.0 on 25 July, 2000. More information about Firebird is available at » http://www.firebirdsql.org/.

Note: This extension supports InterBase versions 5 and up and all versions of Firebird. Support for InterBase version 5.x will be dropped in PHP 5.
This database uses a single quote (') character for escaping, a behavior similar to the Sybase database, add to your php.ini the following directive:

magic_quotes_sybase = On

需求

安装

To enable InterBase support configure PHP --with-interbase[=DIR], where DIR is the InterBase base install directory, which defaults to /usr/interbase.

Note: Note to Win32 Users In order for this extension to work, there are DLL files that must be available to the Windows system PATH. See the FAQ titled "How do I add my PHP directory to the PATH on Windows" for information on how to do this. Although copying DLL files from the PHP folder into the Windows system directory also works (because the system directory is by default in the systems PATH), it is not recommended. This extension requires the following files to be in the PATH: gds32.dll
In case you installed the InterBase database server on the same machine PHP is running on, you will have this DLL already. Therefore you don't need to worry because gds32.dll will already be in the PATH.

运行时配置

这些函数的行为受 php.ini 的影响。

**InterBase configuration options**
Name	Default	Changeable	Changelog
ibase.allow_persistent	"1"	PHP_INI_SYSTEM
ibase.max_persistent	"-1"	PHP_INI_SYSTEM
ibase.max_links	"-1"	PHP_INI_SYSTEM
ibase.default_db	NULL	PHP_INI_SYSTEM	Available since PHP 5.0.0.
ibase.default_user	NULL	PHP_INI_ALL
ibase.default_password	NULL	PHP_INI_ALL
ibase.default_charset	NULL	PHP_INI_ALL	Available since PHP 5.0.0.
ibase.timestampformat	"%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S"	PHP_INI_ALL
ibase.dateformat	"%Y-%m-%d"	PHP_INI_ALL
ibase.timeformat	"%H:%M:%S"	PHP_INI_ALL

有关 PHP_INI_* 常量进一步的细节与定义参见php.ini 配置选项。

以下是配置选项的简要解释。

ibase.allow_persistent boolean: Whether to allow persistent connections to Firebird/InterBase.
ibase.max_persistent integer: The maximum number of persistent Firebird/InterBase connections per process. New connections created with ibase_pconnect() will be non-persistent if this number would be exceeded.
ibase.max_links integer: The maximum number of Firebird/InterBase connections per process, including persistent connections.
ibase.default_db string: The default database to connect to when ibase_[p]connect() is called without specifying a database name. If this value is set and SQL safe mode is enabled, no other connections than to this database will be allowed.
ibase.default_user string: The user name to use when connecting to a database if no user name is specified.
ibase.default_password string: The password to use when connecting to a database if no password is specified.
ibase.default_charset string: The character set to use when connecting to a database if no character set is specified.
ibase.timestampformat string
ibase.dateformat string
ibase.timeformat string: These directives are used to set the date and time formats that are used when returning dates and times from a result set, or when binding arguments to date and time parameters.

预定义常量

以下常量由本扩展模块定义，因此只有在本扩展模块被编译到 PHP 中，或者在运行时被动态加载后才有效。

The following constants can be passed to ibase_trans() to specify transaction behaviour.

**Firebird/InterBase transaction flags**
Constant	Description
IBASE_DEFAULT	The default transaction settings are to be used. This default is determined by the client library, which defines it as IBASE_WRITE\|IBASE_CONCURRENCY\|IBASE_WAIT in most cases.
IBASE_READ	Starts a read-only transaction.
IBASE_WRITE	Starts a read-write transaction.
IBASE_CONSISTENCY	Starts a transaction with the isolation level set to 'consistency', which means the transaction cannot read from tables that are being modified by other concurrent transactions.
IBASE_CONCURRENCY	Starts a transaction with the isolation level set to 'concurrency' (or 'snapshot'), which means the transaction has access to all tables, but cannot see changes that were committed by other transactions after the transaction was started.
IBASE_COMMITTED	Starts a transaction with the isolation level set to 'read committed'. This flag should be combined with either `IBASE_REC_VERSION` or `IBASE_REC_NO_VERSION`. This isolation level allows access to changes that were committed after the transaction was started. If `IBASE_REC_NO_VERSION` was specified, only the latest version of a row can be read. If `IBASE_REC_VERSION` was specified, a row can even be read when a modification to it is pending in a concurrent transaction.
IBASE_WAIT	Indicated that a transaction should wait and retry when a conflict occurs.
IBASE_NOWAIT	Indicated that a transaction should fail immediately when a conflict occurs.

The following constants can be passed to ibase_fetch_row(), ibase_fetch_assoc() or ibase_fetch_object() to specify fetch behaviour.

**Firebird/InterBase fetch flags**
Constant	Description
IBASE_FETCH_BLOBS	Also available as `IBASE_TEXT`for backward compatibility. Causes BLOB contents to be fetched inline, instead of being fetched as BLOB identifiers.
IBASE_FETCH_ARRAYS	Causes arrays to be fetched inline. Otherwise, array identifiers are returned. Array identifiers can only be used as arguments to INSERT operations, as no functions to handle array identifiers are currently available.
IBASE_UNIXTIME	Causes date and time fields not to be returned as strings, but as UNIX timestamps (the number of seconds since the epoch, which is 1-Jan-1970 0:00 UTC). Might be problematic if used with dates before 1970 on some systems.

The following constants are used to pass requests and options to the service API functions (ibase_server_info(), ibase_db_info(), ibase_backup(), ibase_restore() and ibase_maintain_db()). Please refer to the Firebird/InterBase manuals for the meaning of these options.
