Nowhere in the documentaiont explains that if the entire DBF file is lacking a record for one whole column, you will not get a blank entry in your result from dbase_get_record(). You must use dbase_get_record_with_names(), it is the only safe way to read dbase files in PHP 4.
For example, if you have a dbase file with 12 columns, but 3 of them contain no data in any record, then your array returned from dbase_get_record() will only have 9 sequential array keys and values, leaving you no way to figure out which are the missing columns.
dbase_get_record
(PHP 5 < 5.3.0, dbase 5, dbase 7)
dbase_get_record — Gets a record from a database as an indexed array
설명
array dbase_get_record
( resource
$dbase_identifier
, int $record_number
)Gets a record from a database as an indexed array.
인수
-
dbase_identifier -
The database link identifier, returned by dbase_open() or dbase_create().
-
record_number -
The index of the record between 1 and dbase_numrecords($dbase_identifier).
반환값
An indexed array with the record. This array will also include an associative key named deleted which is set to 1 if the record has been marked for deletion (see dbase_delete_record()).
Each field is converted to the appropriate PHP type, except:
- Dates are left as strings.
- DateTime values are converted to strings.
-
Integers outside the range
PHP_INT_MIN..PHP_INT_MAXare returned as strings. - Before dbase 7.0.0, booleans (L) were converted to 1 or 0.
On error, dbase_get_record() will return FALSE.
