mysql_free_result — Free result memory
Questa enstensione deprecata da PHP 5.5.0, e sarà rimossa in futuro. Al suo posto, usare l'estensione MySQLi o PDO_MySQL. Vedere anche la guida MySQL: scelta dell'API e le FAQ relative per ulteriori informazioni. Le alternative a questa funzione includono:
null to the PDO object, or PDOStatement::closeCursor()
mysql_free_result() will free all memory
associated with the result identifier result.
mysql_free_result() only needs to be called if you are concerned about how much memory is being used for queries that return large result sets. All associated result memory is automatically freed at the end of the script's execution.
resultThe risultato resource che che viene calcolato. Questo risultato deriva dal una chiamata a mysql_query().
Restituisce true in caso di successo, false in caso di fallimento.
If a non-resource is used for the result, an
error of level E_WARNING will be emitted. It's worth noting that
mysql_query() only returns a resource
for SELECT, SHOW, EXPLAIN, and DESCRIBE queries.
Example #1 A mysql_free_result() example
<?php
$result = mysql_query("SELECT id,email FROM people WHERE id = '42'");
if (!$result) {
echo 'Could not run query: ' . mysql_error();
exit;
}
/* Use the result, assuming we're done with it afterwards */
$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result);
/* Now we free up the result and continue on with our script */
mysql_free_result($result);
echo $row['id'];
echo $row['email'];
?>Nota:
Per la compatibilità all'indietro, i seguenti sinonimi (deprecati) possono essere utilizzati: mysql_freeresult()
yes this function may increase the memory usage if you use unbuffered querys and if you have not fetched all the data from mysql. in this case the mysql api has a problem: you want to free the result but do not want to close the connection. now mysql will only accept another query if all data has been fetched, so the api now must fetch the rest of the data when calling mysql_free_result().
so only use unbuffered querys if you fetch all the data (and need it).mysql_query() also returns a resource for "OPTIMIZE TABLE" statements!
