odbc_prepare

Example

 resource odbc_prepare ( resource $connection_id , string $query_string ) 

Description

Prepares a statement for execution. The result identifier can be used later to execute the statement with odbc_execute(). Some databases (such as IBM DB2, MS SQL Server, and Oracle) support stored procedures that accept parameters of type IN, INOUT, and OUT as defined by the ODBC specification. However, the Unified ODBC driver currently only supports parameters of type IN to stored procedures.

Return Values

Returns an ODBC result identifier if the SQL command was prepared successfully. Returns FALSE on error.
