Fetching all rows as Object with pdo php

Question

I know that the function fetchObject ( http://www.php.net/manual/en/pdostatement.fetchobject.php ) gives me the next row as an object of the specified class, but I want to get all the rows as an object of the specified class, does PDO has some function to this or I have to do it manually???

THanks!!

Answer 1

You are looking for PDOStatement::fetchAll :

PDOStatement::fetchAll — Returns an array containing all of the result set rows

Example usage:

$arr = $stmt->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_CLASS, $class_name, $constructor_args);

If you do not need all of the objects in a single array, you will probably find iterating through all the rows to work just as well:

while ($obj = $stmt->fetchObject($class_name, $constructor_args)) {
    // Process $obj
}
