Thread: SQLSTATE in PHP?

SQLSTATE in PHP?

From
Michael Glaesemann
Date:
Hey all,

I've been looking for a way to get the SQLSTATE PostgreSQL error code
from within PHP to build better error-handling within my web
front-ends. However, I've been unable to find anything. There is
similar functionality for MySQL in the PHP mysqli_sqlstate() function.

Anyone know of a way to get these error codes from within PHP? Or is
this a missing feature in PHP's PostgreSQL support?

Thanks for any feedback.

Hi Michael,

That mysql function looks like it's bleeding edge, so there won't be a
postgres equivalent yet.

Might be better off asking on the php-dev mailing list about it..

Chris.

No native function that I know of. If it is important you could emulate
it using the error handler.

I.e., define a custom error handler which looks at the error string for
the error, finds the SQL STATE code, and saves that somewhere. Then you
can write another function which returns this saved variable and name it
my_pg_last_error() or whatever.

For the interim, good idea!

Looks like I'll have to get on those PHP developers :)

Thanks again!
