Session information will be discarded if a pooled server is. You may also need to execute the query while. Oracle manages the DRCP pool, shrinking it after a. From a terminal window. The rows. with httpd@localhost. TNS V1- V3)correspond to a running Apache process holding a database. For PHP, Apache runs in a multi- process mode, spawning.

Apache process to open a separate connection to the database. There are a number of. Oracle database, but the basics of querying.
Parse. the statement for execution. Bind. data values (optional). Execute. the statement.
Fetch. the results from the database. To create a simple query, and display the results in an. HTML table, perform the following steps.
This allows you to execute the statement again. If you don't see the returned rows, you may have deleted these employees in the web application part of the tutorial. Use SQL*Plus to query the EMPLOYEE. When the changed data is committed. This is. a database transaction.
By default, when PHP executes a SQL statement it automatically commits. This. can be over- ridden, and the oci. At the end of a PHP script, any uncommitted. Committing each change individually causes extra load on the server. In general. you want all or none of your data committed. To learn about transaction management in PHP with an Oracle database, perform.
To see that. the data has not been committed, query the table to see if there are. From your SQL*Plus session, enter the following commands. The only difference in this script is that in the do. The insertion time is less. In general you want all or none of your data committed. PL/SQL is Oracle's procedural language extension to. SQL. PL/SQL procedures and functions are stored in the database.
Using PL/SQL. lets all database applications reuse. Many data- related operations can be performed in PL/SQL faster. PHP) and then processing. Oracle also supports Java stored procedures.
In this tutorial, you will create a PL/SQL stored procedure. PHP script. Perform the following steps. Start SQL*Plus and create a new table, ptab.
In SQL*Plus, create a stored procedure, myproc. Change proc. php. In SQL*Plus, create a PL/SQL stored function myfunc()to insert a row into the ptab. Perform the. following steps.
Review the SQL in $HOME/public. From your sqlplus session, run the following: connect phphol/welcome. Prefetching is a form of internal row buffering. The number of rows in the buffer is the prefetch value. The larger the prefetch value, the fewer the number of physical database access are needed to return all data to PHP, because each underlying physical request to the database returns more than one row. This can help improve performance.
PHP code does not need to change to handle different prefetch sizes. The buffering is handled by Oracle code.
The included script helper. Time() and elapsed. Time() timing functions, as well as some additional setup functions used later. Your time values may differ depending on your hardware resources, and so on. The default prefetch size can be set in PHP's initialization. In 5. 3, it. is 1. You should choose a suitable default value for your.
Review the SQL in $HOME/public. From your sqlplus session, run the following: sqlplus phphol/welcome. No OCI8 fetch call is needed. If you want to see them, add . The output shows the random 2.
There. is also a pre- supplied package DBMS. In SQL*Plus logged in as phphol. Review the code in $HOME/public.
PHP has populated. There is a direct relationship between the HTML form name name=. The LOB- > savefile(). Note the OCI. The form action calls the script a second time, but. The successful echo. The image has been uploaded to the Web server. These are shown in many Oracle tools and are useful for application monitoring and tracing.
The meta data can be used for tracing or identifying the location in a PHP application of a misbehaving SQL statement. Note only the application information from the first execution of a statement is stored in V$SQLAREA. This section shows the basic technique of updating a section of a page without. Perform the following tasks: You can use a Xml. Http. Request to update a section of a page without reloading the whole page content.
Perform the following steps. Review the code in $HOME/public. It prepares an XMLHttp. Request request. to call ajax. Finally the request is sent to the webserver asynchronously. When the callback function is notified that the web. In web application, the Java script could be invoked by variousevents and could be made to alter the content of the current page.
The new value is displayed. Click OK. to dismiss the alert window. Note: You may also need to flush the browser cache to see the changed value. In this tutorial, you have learned how to: Create a connection Use Database Resident Connection Pooling. Fetch data. Use bind variables.
Use transactions Call PL/SQL Improve query performance. Use LOBs to upload and query images Incorporate AJAX into your page. PHP is a dynamically typed scripting language. It is most. often seen in Web applications but can be used to run command- line scripts.
It has familiar loops, tests, and assignment. Lines are terminated with a semi- colon. Strings can be enclosed in single or double quotes: 'A string constant'. Formatted output with printf(). Hello, World!'. print 'Hello, World!'.
