#18747 [Opn->Asn]: pg_result_error is complete useless

ID: 18747 Updated by: yohgaki@php.net Reported By: vincent@sunlight.tmfweb.nl -Status: Open +Status: Assigned -Bug Type: PostgreSQL related +Bug Type: Documentation problem Operating System: Linux PHP Version: 4.2.2 -Assigned To: +Assigned To: yohgaki New Comment: Looks like I need to explain how it could be useful. If you cannot wait, read libpq manual. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-08-05 17:58:17] vincent@sunlight.tmfweb.nl The function pg_result_error() supposedly gives the error message for some failed SQL query after calling pg_query() with that query. It must be given a resource identifier of the result to get the error message for that result (sounds alright). However, function pg_query() returns FALSE if a query failed instead of a result identifier, so what can possibly be passed to pq_result_error() in this case? The query certainly went wrong, but there's no way to check exactly what, as there is no resource identifier... Almost looks like a Catch 22. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=18747&edit=1
