fbsql_read

Description

string fbsql_read_blob ( string blob_handle [, resource link_identifier])

Returns: A string containing the BLOB specified by blob_handle.

fbsql_read_blob() reads BLOB data from the database. If a select statement contains BLOB and/or CLOB columns FrontBase will return the data directly when data is fetched. This default behavior can be changed with fbsql_set_lob_mode() so the fetch functions will return handles to BLOB and CLOB data. If a handle is fetched a user must call fbsql_read_blob() to get the actual BLOB data from the database.
