ID: 48724 User updated by: an0nym at narod dot ru Reported By: an0nym at narod dot ru Status: Open Bug Type: PDO related Operating System: * PHP Version: 5.3.0 New Comment:
If function has expected behaviour for 35 of 38 cases (that's how many different types has MySQL), it is rather clear how should it behave for remaining 3. > How can there be a bug if behaviour is undefined? Behaviour is not undefined. According to the link you provided, behaviour can be changed without notice, but on the moment of writing it is surely defined and has a bug. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-07-03 13:27:23] u...@php.net Warning This function is EXPERIMENTAL. The behaviour of this function, its name, and surrounding documentation may change without notice in a future release of PHP. This function should be used at your own risk. http://de2.php.net/manual/en/pdostatement.getcolumnmeta.php How can there be a bug if behaviour is undefined? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-06-30 15:33:29] an0nym at narod dot ru Tested - this bug remains actual with PHP 5.3.0 and mysqlnd. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-06-29 18:02:58] an0nym at narod dot ru Description: ------------ PDOStatement::getColumnMeta() doesn't return native_type for BIT, TINYINT and YEAR type columns (these should be 'BIT', 'TINY' and 'YEAR' respectively). This bug was partly discussed within bug #46533, but that bug is generally about another thing. Reproduce code: --------------- $DB=new PDO('mysql:host=localhost;dbname=test','anyone','anyone'); $DB->exec('CREATE TABLE `test`( `bit` bit(1) ,`tinyint` tinyint ,`year` year)'); $DB->exec('INSERT INTO `test` VALUES(1,1,2000)'); $statement=$DB->query('SELECT `bit`,`tinyint`,`year` FROM `test`'); $bit=$statement->getColumnMeta(0); $tinyint=$statement->getColumnMeta(1); $year=$statement->getColumnMeta(2); var_dump(isset($bit['native_type']),isset($tinyint['native_type']),isset($year['native_type'])); Expected result: ---------------- bool(true) bool(true) bool(true) Actual result: -------------- bool(false) bool(false) bool(false) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=48724&edit=1
