BASH doesn't have boolean types. The existence of a program named 'true' doesn't change this.
BASH doesn't have associative arrays, either. You can't use words as array indexes.

ingres_fetch_assoc
INGRES_FETCH_ASSOC(3) 1 INGRES_FETCH_ASSOC(3)
ingres_fetch_assoc - Fetch a row of result into an associative array
SYNOPSIS
array ingres_fetch_assoc (resource $result)
DESCRIPTION
This function is stores the data fetched from a query executed using ingres_query(3) in an associative array, using the field names as
keys.
With regard to speed, the function is identical to ingres_fetch_object(3), and almost as quick as ingres_fetch_row(3) (the difference is
insignificant).
By default, arrays created by ingres_fetch_assoc(3) start from position 1 and not 0 as with other DBMS extensions. The starting position
can be adjusted to 0 using the configuration parameter ingres.array_index_start.
Note
Related Configurations
See also the ingres.array_index_start, ingres.fetch_buffer_size and ingres.utf8 directives in Runtime Configuration.
PARAMETERS
o $result
- The query result identifier
RETURN VALUES
Returns an associative array that corresponds to the fetched row, or FALSE if there are no more rows
EXAMPLES
Example #1
Fetch a row into an associative array
<?php
$link = ingres_connect($database, $user, $password);
$result = ingres_query($link,"select * from table");
while ($row = ingres_fetch_assoc($result)) {
echo $row["user_id"]; // using associative array
echo $row["fullname"];
}
?>
