MAXDB_ERROR(3) 1 MAXDB_ERROR(3)
maxdb_error - Returns a string description of the last error
Procedural style
SYNOPSIS
string maxdb_error (resource $link)
DESCRIPTION
Object oriented style
string$maxdb->error ()
The maxdb_error(3) function is identical to the corresponding maxdb_errno(3) function in every way, except instead of returning an integer
error code the maxdb_error(3) function will return a string representation of the last error to occur for the database connection repre-
sented by the $link parameter. If no error has occurred, this function will return an empty string.
RETURN VALUES
A string that describes the error. An empty string if no error occurred.
EXAMPLES
Example #1
Object oriented style
<?php
$maxdb = new maxdb("localhost", "MONA", "RED", "DEMODB");
/* check connection */
if (maxdb_connect_errno()) {
printf("Connect failed: %s
", maxdb_connect_error());
exit();
}
if (!$maxdb->query("SELECT xxx FROM hotel.city")) {
printf("Errormessage: %s
", $maxdb->error);
}
/* close connection */
$maxdb->close();
?>
Example #2
Procedural style
<?php
$link = maxdb_connect("localhost", "MONA", "RED", "DEMODB");
/* check connection */
if (maxdb_connect_errno()) {
printf("Connect failed: %s
", maxdb_connect_error());
exit();
}
if (!maxdb_query($link, "SELECT xxx FROM hotel.city")) {
printf("Errormessgae: %s
", maxdb_error($link));
}
/* close connection */
maxdb_close($link);
?>
The above example will output something similar to:
PHP Warning: maxdb_query(): -4005 POS(8) Unknown column name:XXX [42000]
Errormessgae: POS(8) Unknown column name:XXX
