(PHP 5, PHP 7, PECL OCI8 >= 1.1.0)
oci_fetch_array — Returns the next row from a query as an associative or numeric array
$statement
[, int $mode
] ) : array
Returns an array containing the next result-set row of a query.
Each array entry corresponds to a column of the row. This function
is typically called in a loop until it returns FALSE, indicating
no more rows exist.
If statement corresponds to a PL/SQL block
returning Oracle Database 12c Implicit Result Sets, then rows from
all sets are consecutively fetched. If
statement is returned
by oci_get_implicit_resultset(), then only the
subset of rows for one child query are returned.

statementUn identificator valid de instrucțiune OCI8 creat cu oci_parse() și executat de oci_execute(), sau un identificator de instrucțiune REF CURSOR.
Can also be a statement identifier returned by oci_get_implicit_resultset().
modeAn optional second parameter can be any combination of the following constants:
| Constant | Description |
|---|---|
OCI_BOTH |
Returns an array with both associative and numeric
indices. This is the same
as OCI_ASSOC
+ OCI_NUM and is the default
behavior. |
OCI_ASSOC |
Returns an associative array. |
OCI_NUM |
Returns a numeric array. |
OCI_RETURN_NULLS |
Creates elements for NULL fields. The element
values will be a PHP NULL.
|
OCI_RETURN_LOBS |
Returns the contents of LOBs instead of the LOB descriptors. |
The default mode is OCI_BOTH.
Use the addition operator "+" to specify more than one mode at a time.
Returns an array with associative and/or numeric indices. If there
are no more rows in the statement then
FALSE is returned.
By default, LOB columns are returned as LOB descriptors.
DATE columns are returned as strings formatted to the current date format. The default format can be changed with Oracle environment variables such as NLS_LANG or by a previously executed ALTER SESSION SET NLS_DATE_FORMAT command.
Oracle's default, non-case sensitive column names will have uppercase associative indices in the result array. Case-sensitive column names will have array indices using the exact column case. Use var_dump() on the result array to verify the appropriate case to use for each query.
The table name is not included in the array index. If your query
contains two different columns with the same name,
use OCI_NUM or add a column alias to the query
to ensure name uniqueness, see example #7. Otherwise only one
column will be returned via PHP.
Example #1 oci_fetch_array() with OCI_BOTH
<?php

Notă:
Associative array indices need to be in uppercase for standard Oracle columns that were created with case insensitive names.
Notă:
În cazul interpelărilor ce întorc un număr mare de înregistrări, performanța poate fi îmbunătățită substanțial mărind valoarea oci8.default_prefetch sau utilizând oci_set_prefetch().
Notă:
The function oci_fetch_array() is insignificantly slower than oci_fetch_assoc() or oci_fetch_row(), but is more flexible.
