Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-03-29 02:10:58] irchtml@php.net Passing the variable by [call-time] reference (&$lob) is not needed, I'll fix the example in just a moment. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-03-29 02:04:20] cjbj at hotmail dot com Looks like it still assumes access to global variables too. If I may presume, there is a related example that doesn't have these problems at http://otn.oracle.com/tech/opensource/php/php_troubleshooting_faq.html#uplobs ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-03-29 01:59:27] cjbj at hotmail dot com Description: ------------ The example in the newly revamped manual entry http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.oci-new-descriptor.php has the line: oci_bind_by_name($stmt, ':the_blob', &$lob, -1, OCI_B_BLOB); Using this syntax I get "Warning: Call-time pass-by-reference has been deprecated" ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=27745&edit=1
