From: doug dot pe at gmail dot com Operating system: Ubuntu 10.04 PHP version: 5.3.15 Package: Documentation problem Bug Type: Documentation Problem Bug description:documented return value incorrect Description: ------------ --- From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.mssql-fetch-batch --- (Actually, my version is listed as 5.3.2, but that's not one of the options in your drop-down.) The documentation states that the return value is the batch number. The comment in the example states that the return value is the number of records remaining before the fetch. These can't both be correct. Test script: --------------- <? $connect = mssql_connect("servername", "username", "password"); // or die ("could not connect to the server"); mssql_select_db("myDatabase") or die ("could not select a database"); $SQL = "select * from myTable"; // mytable contains 4700 rows $result = mssql_query($SQL, $connect, 1000) or die ("An error occurred: " . mssql_get_last_message()); $count = mssql_num_rows($result); do { print $count . "<br />\n"; // } } while ($count = mssql_fetch_batch($result)); mssql_close($connect); ?> Expected result: ---------------- If the return value is the batch number: 1000 1 2 3 4 If the return value is the number of rows remaining before the fetch: 1000 3700 2700 1700 700 Actual result: -------------- 1000 1 -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=62764&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62764&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62764&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62764&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62764&r=fixed Fixed in SVN and need be documented: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62764&r=needdocs Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62764&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62764&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62764&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62764&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62764&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62764&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62764&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62764&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62764&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62764&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62764&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62764&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62764&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62764&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62764&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62764&r=mysqlcfg
