I'm running into problems knowing when and what to call after mysqli_stmt_execute
How do you know when to call
The mysqli_stmt_store_result() function accepts a statement object as a parameter and stores the resultset of the given statement locally, if it executes a SELECT, SHOW or, DESCRIBE statement.
Binds columns in the result set to variables. When mysqli_stmt_fetch() is called to fetch data, the MySQL client/server protocol places the data for the bound columns into the specified variables var / vars . A column can be bound or rebound at any time, even after a result set has been partially retrieved.
mysqli_stmt_bind_result()
tells mysqli which variable you want to be populate when you fetch a row, but it doesn't fetch()
anything yet. This is necessary to call once, before you call fetch.
mysqli_stmt_store_result()
sets an optional behavior so that the client downloads all rows when you fetch()
the first row, and caches the whole result set in the client (i.e. PHP). Subsequent fetch()
calls will simply iterate over this client-cached result set. But setting this option itself does not cause a fetch() yet either. This function is totally optional.
mysqli_stmt_fetch()
returns the next row in the result set, and causes it to be stored in a bound variable. You must call this function in a loop, for each row of the result set. That is, until the fetch returns false.
