Semantics

The fbird_db_info function returns statistical information about a database, similar to using the 'gstat' command. The db parameter is a path to a database or a database alias. Note that it is not necessary to specify the server portion, as you would in a connection string: the service handle already specifies which server you are talking too.

The following table lists the options that can be specified for the what_1 and what_2 parameters. The values can be OR'ed together to request multiple data items at once:

Meaning

Example

The below example retrieves the information located on the database header pages:

$svc = fbird_service_attach('localhost', 'sysdba', 'masterkey')
$info = fbird_db_info($svc, 'path/to/db.fdb', IBASE_STS_HDR_PAGES);
fbird_service_detach($svc);
echo $db_info;
