Database::ezcQueryUpdate

Class ezcQueryUpdate

Class to create select database independent UPDATE queries.

ezcQueryUpdate does not support updating from via a select call.

Note that this class creates queries that are syntactically independant of database. Semantically the queries still differ and so the same query may produce different results on different databases. Such differences are noted throughout the documentation of this class.

This class implements SQL92. If your database differs from the SQL92 implementation extend this class and reimplement the methods that produce different results. Some methods implemented in ezcQuery are not defined by SQL92. These methods are marked and ezcQuery will return MySQL syntax for these cases.

The examples show the SQL generated by this class. Database specific implementations may produce different results.

Example:

  1.  $q = ezcDbInstance::get()->createUpdateQuery();
  2.  $q->update( 'legends' )
  3.         ->set( 'name', $q->bindValue( 'Gretzky' ) )
  4.         ->set( 'year', $q->bindValue( 1961 ) );
  5.  $stmt = $q->prepare();
  6.  $stmt->execute();
