dbase_open (PHP 3, PHP 4, PHP 5) dbase_open -- Opens a database Descriptionint dbase_open ( string filename, int mode )
dbase_open() opens a dBase database with the given
access mode.
Note: When safe mode is enabled, PHP checks whether
the files or directories you are about to operate on have the same UID (owner) as the
script that is being executed.
Parameters
- filename
The name of the database. It can be a relative or absolute path to
the file where dBase will store your data.
- mode
An integer which correspond to those for the open()
system call (Typically 0 means read-only, 1 means write-only, and 2
means read and write).
Note:
You can't open a dBase file in write-only mode as the function will
fail to read the headers information and thus you can't use 1 as
mode.
Examples
Example 1. Opening a dBase database file <?php
// open in read-only mode
$db = dbase_open('/tmp/test.dbf', 0);
if ($db) {
// read some data ..
dbase_close($db);
}
?> |
|
Return Values
Returns a database link identifier if the database is successfully opened,
or FALSE if an error occurred.
