PDO_ODBC is a driver that implements the PHP Data Objects (PDO) interface to enable access from PHP to databases through ODBC drivers or through the IBM DB2 Call Level Interface (DB2 CLI) library. PDO_ODBC currently supports three different "flavours" of database drivers:
Supports access to IBM DB2 Universal Database, Cloudscape, and Apache Derby servers through the free DB2 client.
Supports access to database servers through the unixODBC driver manager and the database's own ODBC drivers.
Offers a compile option for ODBC driver managers that are not explicitly supported by PDO_ODBC.
On Windows, PDO_ODBC is built into the PHP core by default. It is linked against the Windows ODBC Driver Manager so that PHP can connect to any database cataloged as a System DSN, and is the recommended driver for connecting to Microsoft SQL Server databases.
As of PHP 5.1, PDO_ODBC is included in the PHP source. You can compile the PDO_ODBC extension as either a static or shared module using the following configure commands.
./configure --with-pdo-odbc=ibm-db2,/opt/IBM/db2/V8.1/
If you do not supply a location for the DB2 libraries and headers to the configure command, PDO_ODBC defaults to /home/db2inst1/sqllib.
./configure --with-pdo-odbc=unixODBC,/usr/local
./configure --with-pdo-odbc=generic,/usr/local,libname,ldflags,cflags
这些函数的行为受 php.ini 的影响。
| Name | Default | Changeable | Changelog |
|---|---|---|---|
| pdo_odbc.connection_pooling | "strict" | PHP_INI_ALL | Available since PHP 5.1.0. |
| pdo_odbc.db2_instance_name | NULL | PHP_INI_SYSTEM | Available since PHP 5.1.1. Removed in PHP 6.0.0. |
有关 PHP_INI_* 常量进一步的细节与定义参见php.ini 配置选项。
以下是配置选项的简要解释。
Whether to pool ODBC connections. Can be one of "strict", "relaxed" or
"off" (equals to ""). The parameter describes how strict the connection
manager should be when matching connection parameters to existing pooled
connections. strict
is the recommend default, and
will result in the use of cached connections only when all the connection
parameters match exactly. relaxed
will result in
the use of cached connections when similar connection parameters are
used. This can result in increased use of the cache, at the risk of
bleeding connection information between (for example) virtual hosts.
This setting can only be changed from the php.ini file, and affects the entire process; any other modules loaded into the process that use the same ODBC libraries will be affected too, including the Unified ODBC extension.
relaxed
matching should not be used on a shared
server, for security reasons.
Leave this setting at the default strict
setting
unless you have good reason to change it.
If you compile PDO_ODBC using the db2 flavour, this setting sets the value of the DB2INSTANCE environment variable on Linux and UNIX operating systems to the specified name of the DB2 instance. This enables PDO_ODBC to resolve the location of the DB2 libraries and make cataloged connections to DB2 databases.
This setting can only be changed from the php.ini file, and affects the entire process; any other modules loaded into the process that use the same ODBC libraries will be affected too, including the Unified ODBC extension.
This setting has no effect on Windows.
