Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=78855&edit=1 ID: 78855 Comment by: fgfgfgfdf at somewhere dot com Reported by: olegxx at gmail dot com Summary: Native PHP types in database fetches Status: Open Type: Feature/Change Request Package: PostgreSQL related Operating System: Linux PHP Version: 7.2.25 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: didn't you get the point? it has to be *connection wide* option and it shouldn't be completly different for each and every database type mysqli_init() -> mysqli_options() -> mysqli_real_connect() Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2019-11-22 11:29:36] imbolk at gmail dot com fgfgfgfdf, what about pg_fetch_result? It returns false on an error and will, in your case, return false also if it succeeds in getting the value false. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2019-11-22 11:11:27] fgfgfgfdf at somewhere dot com it's simply wrong add a param to each and every function and just to two can't be serious - how do you imagine to port existing code to that without a ton of errors over the time? besides that another quick shot with mor incosntistences given that myqli has solved that years ago ina proper way if(mysqli_options($this->conn, MYSQLI_OPT_INT_AND_FLOAT_NATIVE, TRUE) === FALSE) { $this->error('mysqli_options(MYSQLI_OPT_INT_AND_FLOAT_NATIVE) failed'); } ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2019-11-22 11:03:44] olegxx at gmail dot com Added pull request for the first variant: https://github.com/php/php-src/pull/4939 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2019-11-22 10:51:40] olegxx at gmail dot com Description: ------------ PostgreSQL extension should return native PHP types (int, bool, string) from database queries as pdo_pgsql does. To maintain backward compatibility, we can add a new result type flag to pg_fetch_array and pg_fetch_all (e.g. PSQL_TYPED) or create new fetch function. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=78855&edit=1
