mysql_fetch_stmt

[Ike]

Does anyone know if mysql_fetch_stmt can be used in any version <5.0 ?

Thanks, Ike

I can find no string by that name anywhere in the MySQL 5.0.2 source
code. Are you referring to a supposed API call or SQL syntax or... ?

Can you share with us where you heard about "mysql_fetch_stmt" and what
you suppose it does? I am not finding anything by that name in the
source code, the documentation, or Google. ;-)

Hi Bill,

I am a developer who has subcontracted some work out having to do with
interfacing to MySQL to another database. If I use a libmysql.dll from MySQL
<5.0, I get errors saying, "Procedure entry point mysql_stmt_fetch," not
found. With >5.0, I dont have these problems. Evidently this is
undocumented, or an internal function that gets called somehow. -Ike

Woops! I don't know what I was talking about before. I must have made
a typo when I was searching. Sorry about that.

mysql_stmt_fetch() is indeed an API call:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/mysql-stmt-fetch.html

According to that page, mysql_stmt_fetch() was added in MySQL 4.1.2. So
if you use an older release of MySQL, the function apparently doesn't exist.

Yes, but I see the generally available stable version is still only 4.1.10!

Yes, but 10 is greater than 2.

4.1.2 was released 2004-05-28.
4.1.10 was released 2005-02-12.
