note 78173 added to function.PDOStatement-bindParam

Does anybody see anything wrong with using bindParam this way? BTW, it does work... // $query is our parameterized query // $params is an array of :param => value public function getResultWithParameters($query,$params) { $statement = $db->prepare($query); foreach ($params as $key=>$value) { $statement->bindParam($key,$value); } $statement->execute(); } I'm calling this class function from outside the class, so I just want to send the parameterized query and the parameters and let the function do the binding. I realize I lose some functionality, like being able to call the execute() method multiple time with different parameters just by changing the variables. Anybody have insight as to why I would not want to use this? ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 63.111.113.123 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.PDOStatement-bindParam.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/78173 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/78173/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/78173/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/78173/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/78173/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/78173/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/78173/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/78173 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/78173 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
