->query()

->query() – send a raw query

Synopsis

void $DB_DataObject->query ( string $string )

Description

Sends a raw query to database. Often you may consider that using a large number of whereAdd's and orderBy method calls are not necessary, and it would be simpler to just write the query, to make the code clearer and shorter.

Parameter

  • string $string - SQL Query

Note

This function can not be called statically.

Example

raw queries on the database

<?php
$person 
= new DataObjects_Person;
$person->query("SELECT * FROM {$person->__table} WHERE id > 12 ORDER BY id");
while (
$person->fetch()) {
  echo 
$person->name;
}
?>
