note 107611 added to mysqli.prepare

Using bind_result etc in prepared statements yields PHP data closely matched in type to that specified in the database saving quite a bit of type casting later. Contrast this to get_result() / fetch_assoc() method which by default yields all values as strings, although if changing to stored procedures the results will at least be consistent with the old way. ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 165.228.140.126 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/mysqli.prepare.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/107611 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/107611/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/107611/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/107611/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/107611/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/107611/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/107611/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/107611 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/107611 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
