This topic discusses the constants that are defined by the Microsoft Drivers for PHP for SQL Server.
PDO_SQLSRV Driver Constants
The constants listed on the PDO website are valid in the Microsoft Drivers for PHP for SQL Server.
The following describe the Microsoft specific constants in the PDO_SQLSRV driver.
Transaction Isolation Level Constants
The TransactionIsolation key, which is used with PDO::__construct, accepts one of the following constants:
-
PDO::SQLSRV_TXN_READ_UNCOMMITTED
-
PDO::SQLSRV_TXN_READ_COMMITTED
-
PDO::SQLSRV_TXN_REPEATABLE_READ
-
PDO::SQLSRV_TXN_SNAPSHOT
-
PDO::SQLSRV_TXN_SERIALIZABLE
For more information about the TransactionIsolation key, see Connection Options.
Encoding Constants
The PDO::SQLSRV_ATTR_ENCODING attribute can be passed to PDOStatement::setAttribute, PDO::setAttribute, PDO::prepare, PDOStatement::bindColumn, and PDOStatement::bindParam.
The available values to pass to PDO::SQLSRV_ATTR_ENCODING are
|
PDO_SQLSRV driver constant |
Description |
|---|---|
|
PDO::SQLSRV_ENCODING_BINARY |
Data is a raw byte stream from the server without performing encoding or translation. Not valid for PDO::setAttribute. |
|
PDO::SQLSRV_ENCODING_SYSTEM |
Data is 8-bit characters as specified in the code page of the Windows locale that is set on the system. Any multi-byte characters or characters that do not map into this code page are substituted with a single byte question mark (?) character. |
|
PDO::SQLSRV_ENCODING_UTF8 |
Data is in the UTF-8 encoding. This is the default encoding. |
|
PDO::SQLSRV_ENCODING_DEFAULT |
Uses PDO::SQLSRV_ENCODING_SYSTEM if specified during connection. Use the connection’s encoding if specified in a prepare statement. |
Query Timeout
The PDO::SQLSRV_ATTR_QUERY_TIMEOUT attribute is any non-negative integer representing the timeout period, in seconds. Zero (0) is the default and means no timeout.
You can specify the PDO::SQLSRV_ATTR_QUERY_TIMEOUT attribute with PDOStatement::setAttribute, PDO::setAttribute, and PDO::prepare.
Direct or Prepared Execution
You can select direct query execution or prepared statement execution with the PDO::SQLSRV_ATTR_DIRECT_QUERY attribute. PDO::SQLSRV_ATTR_DIRECT_QUERY can be set with PDO::prepare or PDO::setAttribute. For more information about PDO::SQLSRV_ATTR_DIRECT_QUERY, see Direct Statement Execution and Prepared Statement Execution in the PDO_SQLSRV Driver.
