Name

end_result — End the current result set.

Synopsis

end_result ( );
 

Description

The result_names() predefines variables to be used in a result set to follow. The variables must be previously declared, from which the column data types are ascertained. This assigns the meta data but does not send any results. The result() function sends its parameters as a single row of results. These parameters should be compatible with those in the previous result_names() . The end_result() function can be used to separate multiple result sets. The result_names() can then be used to alter the result set structure.

The result_names() call can be omitted if the application already knows what columns and their types are to be returned.
