mysql_field_len () function and more for postgres ... problems ... * pg_field_prtlen ... gives the actual size of the field back (it shows the count of the content allready inside the field - not the possible max-len) * pg_filed_size ... can't be used for varchar or bpchar fields ...but there is a way to get the real-max-length of a field in postgreSQL via the system tables: //returns an array with infos of every field in the table (name, type, length, size) function SQLConstructFieldsInfo($TABLE, $DBCON) { $s="SELECT a.attname AS name, t.typname AS type, a.attlen AS size, a.atttypmod AS len, a.attstorage AS i FROM pg_attribute a , pg_class c, pg_type t WHERE c.relname = '$TABLE' AND a.attrelid = c.oid AND a.atttypid = t.oid"; if ($r = pg_query($DBCON,$s)) { $i=0; while ($q = pg_fetch_assoc($r)) { $a[$i]["type"]=$q["type"]; $a[$i]["name"]=$q["name"]; if($q["len"]<0 && $q["i"]!="x") { // in case of digits if needed ...

If you update the query to this: $s = "SELECT a.attname AS name, t.typname AS type, a.attlen AS size, a.atttypmod AS len, a.attstorage AS i FROM pg_attribute a , pg_class c, pg_type t WHERE c.relname = '$TABLE' AND a.attrelid = c.oid AND a.atttypid = t.oid and a.attnum > 0 and not a.attisdropped"; You get postgres to filter out the 'postgres' columns and get only your columns back. |
