PDO::errorInfo

Description

Return Values

PDO::errorInfo() returns an array of error information about the last operation performed by this database handle. The array consists of the following fields:

PDO::errorInfo() only retrieves error information for operations performed directly on the database handle. If you create a PDOStatement object through PDO::prepare() or PDO::query() and invoke an error on the statement handle, PDO::errorInfo() will not reflect the error from the statement handle. You must call PDOStatement::errorInfo() to return the error information for an operation performed on a particular statement handle.

Examples

<?php
/* Provoke an error -- the BONES table does not exist */
$err = $dbh->prepare('SELECT skull FROM bones');
$err->execute();
echo "\nPDO::errorInfo():\n";
print_r($err->errorInfo());
?>
