Bug #12008 Updated: mysql_fetch_* inconsistent with MySQL C API

ID: 12008 Updated by: zeev Reported By: strougatski@ea-ratings.ru Status: Open Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Operating System: RedHat 6.2 PHP Version: 4.0.6 New Comment: fetch_array, in recent versions (4.0.6 inclusive) should actrually populate NULL values in the array. Are you sure you tested it with 4.0.6? How did you arrive to the conlusion they're not there? Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-07-10 09:08:13] strougatski@ea-ratings.ru The handling of NULL values in mysql_fetch_* function seems to be inconsistent with MySQL C API: in C, mysql_fetch_row() would put nil values in the row array if corresponding value in the select statement is NULL. In PHP it seems, as dicussed on mysql_fetch_array() page, the NULL values would not be stored in the array at all. This poses some problems when migrating from C to PHP. Would it be possible to introduce another function that would be consistent with MySQL C API? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ATTENTION!
