This function serves an identical purpose to the mysqli_fetch_field()
function with the single difference that, instead of returning one object at a time for
each field, the columns are returned as an array of objects.

is available.

| name | The name of the column | | orgname | Original column name if an alias was specified | | table | The name of the table this field belongs to (if not calculated) | | orgtable | Original table name if an alias was specified | | def | The default value for this field, represented as a string | | max_length | The maximum width of the field for the result set. | | length | The width of the field, as specified in the table definition. | | charsetnr | The character set number for the field. | | flags | An integer representing the bit-flags for the field. | | type | The data type used for this field | | decimals | The number of decimals used (for integer fields) |
ExamplesExample 1. Object oriented style <?php
$mysqli = new mysqli("localhost", "my_user", "my_password", "world");
/* check connection */
if (mysqli_connect_errno()) {
printf("Connect failed: %s\n", mysqli_connect_error());
exit();
}
$query = "SELECT Name, SurfaceArea from Country ORDER BY Code LIMIT 5";
if ($result = $mysqli->query($query)) {
/* Get field information for all columns */
$finfo = $result->fetch_fields();
foreach ($finfo as $val) {
printf("Name: %s\n", $val->name);
printf("Table: %s\n", $val->table);
printf("max. Len: %d\n", $val->max_length);
printf("Flags: %d\n", $val->flags);
printf("Type: %d\n\n", $val->type);
}
$result->close();
}
/* close connection */
$mysqli->close();
?> |

Example 2. Procedural style <?php
$link = mysqli_connect("localhost", "my_user", "my_password", "world");
/* check connection */
if (mysqli_connect_errno()) {
printf("Connect failed: %s\n", mysqli_connect_error());
exit();
}
$query = "SELECT Name, SurfaceArea from Country ORDER BY Code LIMIT 5";
if ($result = mysqli_query($link, $query)) {
/* Get field information for all columns */
$finfo = mysqli_fetch_fields($result);
foreach ($finfo as $val) {
printf("Name: %s\n", $val->name);
printf("Table: %s\n", $val->table);
printf("max. Len: %d\n", $val->max_length);
printf("Flags: %d\n", $val->flags);
printf("Type: %d\n\n", $val->type);
}
mysqli_free_result($result);
}
/* close connection */
mysqli_close($link);

The above example will output: Name: Name
Table: Country
max. Len: 11
