PHP Manual: sesam

Description

array sesam_diagnostic ( void )

Returns an associative array of status and return codes for the last SQL query/statement/command. Elements of the array are:

Table 1. Status information returned by sesam_diagnostic()

Element	Contents
$array["sqlstate"]	5 digit SQL return code (see the SESAM manual for the description of the possible values of SQLSTATE)
$array["rowcount"]	number of affected rows in last update/insert/delete (set after "immediate" statements only)
$array["errmsg"]	"human readable" error message string (set after errors only)
$array["errcol"]	error column number of previous error (0-based; or -1 if undefined. Set after errors only)
$array["errlin"]	error line number of previous error (0-based; or -1 if undefined. Set after errors only)

In the following example, a syntax error (E SEW42AE ILLEGAL CHARACTER) is displayed by including the offending SQL statement and pointing to the error location:
