Thread: Support for prepared queries
Hi, Does anyone know if PHP supports prepared queries for PostgreSQL 7.3.x ? If not, when will prepared queries be supported? Thanks, Stephen

No it doesn't. I tried to contact the developers of the PGSQL extension, but
had no feed back. :-(

Those are not prepared queries (at least in the sence of prepare -> execute).
For prepared queries you have to know how to talk to libpq, and that's
something that is done from the pgsql ext.

This hunk of code works fine on my php 4.3.2 / postgresql 7.3.4 box:
<?php
$conn = pg_connect("dbname=marl8412 user=marl8412");
$a = pg_query($conn,"prepare test (int4) as select * from accounts where
aid= $1");
$res = pg_query($conn,"execute test (45)");
$row = pg_fetch_row($res);
print implode(" ",array_values($row))."<BR>";
?>
so yes, you can use a prepared queries in PHP. But, they won't live
across connections I don't think. Or at least I'm pretty sure you can't
count on them living from one page to the next. but if you're gonna have
a page where you run the same select with different select parameters over
and over it might be a win.

Maybe use a procedure-language function instead of a prepared query? Persistent connections won't help; the prepared query may still be valid but only for that web-server child process.
Any idea how the prepared query can be made to save across PHP invocations?
How about using pg_pconnect (persistent connection), will it stay prepared
when PHP comes again and reuse the connection?

No, in fact in PHP5 php now purposely resets the connection between pages.
You'd have to write some kind of pooling solution to get that kind of
behaviour. I don't know of anyone working on pooling in PHP.

Hey, I found this on sourceforge: http://sqlrelay.sourceforge.net/ No clue how well it works, but I might give it a try.

I vote for a new command: RESET SESSION; Basically, we make that connection reset everythign - SET variables, open cursors, etc. I don't think we want to clobber prepared queries...i dunno. And we can add stuff to it without needing pool managers to change how they do things. Chris

But since your not guaranteeds your original connection in PHP, might there still be some issues?
