How to: Retrieve Output Parameters Using the SQLSRV Driver |
Example See Also Send Feedback |
This topic demonstrates how to call a stored procedure in which one parameter has been defined as an output parameter. Note that when retrieving an output or input/output parameter, all results returned by the stored procedure must be consumed before the returned parameter value is accessible.
Note |
---|
Variables that are initialized or updated to null, DateTime, or stream types cannot be used as output parameters. |
Data truncation can occur when stream types such as SQLSRV_SQLTYPE_VARCHAR('max') are used as output parameters. Stream types are not supported as output parameters. For non-stream types, data truncation can occur if the length of the output parameter is not specified or if the specified length is not sufficiently large for the output parameter.
Example
The following example calls a stored procedure that returns the year-to-date sales by a specified employee. The PHP variable $lastName is an input parameter and $salesYTD is an output parameter.
Note |
---|
Initializing $salesYTD to 0.0 sets the returned PHPTYPE to float. To ensure data type integrity, output parameters should be initialized before calling the stored procedure, or the desired PHPTYPE should be specified. For information about specifying the PHPTYPE, see How to: Specify PHP Data Types. |
Because only one result is returned by the stored procedure, $salesYTD contains the returned value of the output parameter immediately after the stored procedure is executed.
Note |
---|
Calling stored procedures using canonical syntax is the recommended practice. For more information about canonical syntax, see Calling a Stored Procedure. |
The example assumes that SQL Server and the AdventureWorks database are installed on the local computer. All output is written to the console when the example is run from the command line.
