mysql_info — Get information about the most recent query
Această extensie a devenit învechită în PHP 5.5.0 și a fost eliminată în PHP 7.0.0. În locul ei trebuie utilizată extensia MySQLi sau PDO_MySQL. Accesați de asemenea ghidul MySQL: selectarea unei API și FAQ asociat pentru informații suplimentare. Variante alternative pentru această funcție includ:
$link_identifier

] ) : stringReturns detailed information about the last query.
link_identifier
Conexiunea MySQL. Dacă identificatorul
legăturii nu este specificat, se presupune că este ultima legătură deschisă cu
ajutorul mysql_connect(). Dacă nu este găsită nici o astfel
de legătură, se va încerca crearea uneia prin apelul mysql_connect
() fără argumente. În caz că nici o conexiune nu este găsită sau
stabilită, se va genera o eroare de nivelul E_WARNING
.
Returns information about the statement on success, or false
on
failure. See the example below for which statements provide information,
and what the returned value may look like. Statements that are not listed
will return false
.
Example #1 Relevant MySQL Statements
Statements that return string values. The numbers are only for illustrating purpose; their values will correspond to the query.
INSERT INTO ... SELECT ... String format: Records: 23 Duplicates: 0 Warnings: 0 INSERT INTO ... VALUES (...),(...),(...)... String format: Records: 37 Duplicates: 0 Warnings: 0 LOAD DATA INFILE ... String format: Records: 42 Deleted: 0 Skipped: 0 Warnings: 0 ALTER TABLE String format: Records: 60 Duplicates: 0 Warnings: 0 UPDATE String format: Rows matched: 65 Changed: 65 Warnings: 0
Notă:
mysql_info() returns a non-
false
value for the INSERT ... VALUES statement only if multiple value lists are specified in the statement.

Imade a quick conversion of eric's function just to count matched or affected rows from a query.
/**GD gdf_db_count_query_v1: returns the amount of rows matched or affected by the last query. Must be used immediately after the concerned query.
*/
function gdf_db_count_query($link = 'dbh') {
$info_str = mysql_info($$link);
if (ereg("Records: ([0-9]*)", $info_str, $count) == false) {
ereg("Rows matched: ([0-9]*)", $info_str, $count);
}
return $count;
}
I agree that this is a useful function to use when trying to check on whether an update query matched a particular row. I created a simple function that returns an associative array with the values delineated in the returned string.
function get_mysql_info($linkid = null){
$linkid? $strInfo = mysql_info($linkid) : $strInfo = mysql_info();
$return = array();
ereg("Records: ([0-9]*)", $strInfo, $records);
ereg("Duplicates: ([0-9]*)", $strInfo, $dupes);
ereg("Warnings: ([0-9]*)", $strInfo, $warnings);
ereg("Deleted: ([0-9]*)", $strInfo, $deleted);
ereg("Skipped: ([0-9]*)", $strInfo, $skipped);
ereg("Rows matched: ([0-9]*)", $strInfo, $rows_matched);
ereg("Changed: ([0-9]*)", $strInfo, $changed);
$return['records'] = $records[1];
$return['duplicates'] = $dupes[1];
$return['warnings'] = $warnings[1];
$return['deleted'] = $deleted[1];
$return['skipped'] = $skipped[1];
$return['rows_matched'] = $rows_matched[1];
$return['changed'] = $changed[1];
return $return;
}
After trying to update a row that may or may not exist, you can use the above function like so:
$vals = get_mysql_info($linkid);
if($vals['rows_matched'] == 0){
mysql_query("INSERT INTO table values('val1','val2', 'valetc')", $linkid);
}
As a solution to the problem pointed in the post reffering to mysql_affected_rows() returning 0 when you are making an update query and the fields are not modified although the query is valid, i'm posting the following function. It is very simple and based on a previous post.
function mysql_modified_rows () {
$info_str = mysql_info();
$a_rows = mysql_affected_rows();
ereg("Rows matched: ([0-9]*)", $info_str, $r_matched);
return ($a_rows < 1)?($r_matched[1]?$r_matched[1]:0):$a_rows;
}
Hope you'll find it usefull.
This function can be used as a workaround for a misfeature of MySQL: on an UPDATE, rows that aren't updated _solely because they looked the same before_ will not be seen in mysql_affected_rows(). This causes problems when you want to use the result of the update to determine if there's need to do an INSERT. With MySQL you can do an INSERT IGNORE if there's no risk of if failing because of a duplicate key other than the one used in the UPDATE. However, if this isn't the case or you want a bit of RDBMS independence, there's no easy/pretty workaround. I think I'll resort to doing a SELECT to determine the primary key before doing the update/insert, as using the CVS version of PHP isn't an option for me.
