Hello,
Here's the procedural code. Surely it's possible to create a MySQL
function through the API?
$link = mysql_connect('localhost', 'root', 'pass');
mysql_select_db( 'test' );
$ret = mysql_query( 'DELIMITER $$ DROP FUNCTION IF EXISTS `anti_space`$$
CREATE FUNCTION `anti_space` (
inString VARCHAR(1000),
replaceThis VARCHAR(1000),
replaceWith VARCHAR(1000)
)
RETURNS VARCHAR(1000)
DETERMINISTIC
BEGIN
DECLARE _outString VARCHAR(1000) DEFAULT TRIM(inString);
DECLARE _length INT DEFAULT LENGTH(_outString);
DECLARE _doneLoop BOOLEAN DEFAULT FALSE;
DECLARE _lengthNext INT DEFAULT 0;
IF ( _length != 0 ) THEN
WHILE (! _doneLoop AND _length != 0 ) DO
SET _outString = REPLACE( _outString, replaceThis, replaceWith );
SET _lengthNext = LENGTH(_outString);
SET _doneLoop = (_lengthNext = _length);
SET _length = _lengthNext;
END WHILE;
END IF;
RETURN _outString;
END$$
DELIMITER ;', $link );
if( !$ret ) echo mysql_error($link);
exit;
output:
You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that
corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use
near 'DELIMITER $$ DROP FUNCTION IF EXISTS `anti_space`$$ CREATE
FUNCTION `anti_spac' at line 1
I've tried putting the delimiter call in it's own query() call, but no
luck so far.
Thanks,
Andy
