# XXVII. dbx Functions

# Introduzione

The dbx module is a database abstraction layer (db 'X', where 'X' is a supported database). The dbx functions allow you to access all supported databases using a single calling convention. The dbx-functions themselves do not interface directly to the databases, but interface to the modules that are used to support these databases.

> Nota: Questo modulo è stato spostato nel repository PECL e non sarà più rilascio con il PHP dalla versione 5.1.0.

# Requisiti

To be able to use a database with the dbx-module, the module must be either linked or loaded into PHP, and the database module must be supported by the dbx-module. Currently, the following databases are supported, but others will follow:

- FrontBase (available from PHP 4.1.0).

- Microsoft SQL Server

- MySQL

- ODBC

- PostgreSQL

- Sybase-CT (available from PHP 4.2.0).

- Oracle (oci8) (available from PHP 4.3.0).

- SQLite (PHP 5).

Documentation for adding additional database support to dbx can be found at http://www.guidance.nl/php/dbx/doc/.

# Installazione

In order to have these functions available, you must compile PHP with dbx support by using the --enable-dbx option and all options for the databases that will be used, e.g. for MySQL you must also specify --with-mysql=[DIR]. To get other supported databases to work with the dbx-module refer to their specific documentation.

# Configurazione di Runtime

Il comportamento di queste funzioni è influenzato dalle impostazioni di `php.ini`.

Tabella 1. DBX Configuration Options

Name | Default | Changeable | Changelog
--- | --- | --- | ---
dbx.colnames_case | "unchanged" | PHP_INI_SYSTEM | Available since PHP 4.3.0.

Per maggiori dettagli sulle costanti PHP_INI_* vedere Appendice G.

Breve descrizione dei parametri di configurazione.

dbx.colnames_case string

  Columns names can be returned "unchanged" or converted to "uppercase" or "lowercase". This directive can be overridden with a flag to dbx_query().

# Tipi di risorse

There are two resource types used in the dbx module. The first one is the link-object for a database connection, the second a result-object which holds the result of a query.
