MYSQL_UNBUFFERED_QUERY(3)						 1						 MYSQL_UNBUFFERED_QUERY(3)

mysql_unbuffered_query - Send an SQL query to MySQL without fetching and buffering the result rows.

SYNOPSIS
Warning This extension is deprecated as of PHP 5.5.0, and will be removed in the future. Instead, the MySQLi or PDO_MySQL extension should be used. See also MySQL: choosing an API guide and related FAQ for more information. Alternatives to this function include: oSee: Buffered and Unbuffered queries resource mysql_unbuffered_query (string $query, [resource $link_identifier = NULL]) DESCRIPTION
mysql_unbuffered_query(3) sends the SQL query $query to MySQL without automatically fetching and buffering the result rows as mysql_query(3) does. This saves a considerable amount of memory with SQL queries that produce large result sets, and you can start working on the result set immediately after the first row has been retrieved as you don't have to wait until the complete SQL query has been per- formed. To use mysql_unbuffered_query(3) while multiple database connections are open, you must specify the optional parameter $link_iden- tifier to identify which connection you want to use. o $query - The SQL query to execute. Data inside the query should be properly escaped. o $ link_identifier -The MySQL connection. If the link identifier is not specified, the last link opened by mysql_connect(3) is assumed. If no such link is found, it will try to create one as if mysql_connect(3) was called with no arguments. If no connection is found or established, an E_WARNING level error is generated. For SELECT, SHOW, DESCRIBE or EXPLAIN statements, mysql_unbuffered_query(3) returns a resource on success, or FALSE on error. For other type of SQL statements, UPDATE, DELETE, DROP, etc, mysql_unbuffered_query(3) returns TRUE on success or FALSE on error. Note The benefits of mysql_unbuffered_query(3) come at a cost: you cannot use mysql_num_rows(3) and mysql_data_seek(3) on a result set returned from mysql_unbuffered_query(3), until all rows are fetched. You also have to fetch all result rows from an unbuffered SQL query before you can send a new SQL query to MySQL, using the same $link_identifier. mysql_query(3).

mysql_insert_id - Get the ID generated in the last query

SYNOPSIS
Warning This extension is deprecated as of PHP 5.5.0, and will be removed in the future. Instead, the MySQLi or PDO_MySQL extension should be used. See also MySQL: choosing an API guide and related FAQ for more information. Alternatives to this function include: omysqli_insert_id(3) o PDO::lastInsertId int mysql_insert_id ([resource $link_identifier = NULL]) DESCRIPTION
Retrieves the ID generated for an AUTO_INCREMENT column by the previous query (usually INSERT). o $ link_identifier -The MySQL connection. If the link identifier is not specified, the last link opened by mysql_connect(3) is assumed. If no such link is found, it will try to create one as if mysql_connect(3) was called with no arguments. If no connection is found or established, an E_WARNING level error is generated. The ID generated for an AUTO_INCREMENT column by the previous query on success, 0 if the previous query does not generate an AUTO_INCRE- MENT value, or FALSE if no MySQL connection was established. Example #1 mysql_insert_id(3) example <?php $link = mysql_connect('localhost', 'mysql_user', 'mysql_password'); if (!$link) { die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error()); } mysql_select_db('mydb'); mysql_query("INSERT INTO mytable (product) values ('kossu')"); printf("Last inserted record has id %d ", mysql_insert_id()); ?> Caution mysql_insert_id(3) will convert the return type of the native MySQL C API function mysql_insert_id() to a type of long (named int in PHP). If your AUTO_INCREMENT column has a column type of BIGINT (64 bits) the conversion may result in an incorrect value. Instead, use the internal MySQL SQL function LAST_INSERT_ID() in an SQL query. For more information about PHP's maximum integer values, please see the integer documentation. Note Because mysql_insert_id(3) acts on the last performed query, be sure to call mysql_insert_id(3) immediately after the query that generates the value. Note The value of the MySQL SQL function LAST_INSERT_ID() always contains the most recently generated AUTO_INCREMENT value, and is not reset between queries. mysql_query(3), mysql_info(3).
