sybase_fetch_object

(PHP 3, PHP 4 , PHP 5)

sybase_fetch_object -- Fetch a row as an object

Description

object sybase_fetch_object ( resource result [, mixed object])

Returns an object with properties that correspond to the fetched row, or FALSE if there are no more rows.

sybase_fetch_object() is similar to sybase_fetch_assoc(), with one difference - an object is returned, instead of an array.

Use the second object to specify the type of object you want to return. If this parameter is omitted, the object will be of type stdClass.

Note: As of PHP 4.3.0, this function will no longer return numeric object members.

Old behaviour:
object(stdclass)(3) {
  [0]=>
  string(3) "foo"
  ["foo"]=>
  string(3) "foo"
  [1]=>
  string(3) "bar"
  ["bar"]=>
  string(3) "bar"
}
New behaviour:
object(stdclass)(3) {
  ["foo"]=>
  string(3) "foo"
  ["bar"]=>
  string(3) "bar"
}

Example 1. sybase_fetch_object() return as Foo

<?php
    
class Foo {
        var
$foo, $bar, $baz;
    }
    
    
// {...]
    
$qrh= sybase_query('SELECT foo, bar, baz FROM example');
    
$foo= sybase_fetch_object($qrh, 'Foo');
    
$bar= sybase_fetch_object($qrh, new Foo());
    
// {...]
?>

Speed-wise, the function is identical to sybase_fetch_array(), and almost as quick as sybase_fetch_row() (the difference is insignificant).
