PDOStatement::debugDumpParams — Dump an SQL prepared command
Dumps the information contained by a prepared statement directly on the output. It will provide the SQL query in use, the number of parameters used (Params), the list of parameters with their key name or position, their name, their position in the query (if this is supported by the PDO driver, otherwise, it will be -1), type (param_type) as an integer, and a boolean value is_param.
This is a debug function, which dumps the data directly to the normal output.
As with anything that outputs its result directly to the browser, the output-control functions can be used to capture the output of this function, and save it in a string (for example).
This will only dump the parameters in the statement at the moment of the dump. Extra parameters are not stored in the statement, and not displayed.
No value is returned.
Example #1 PDOStatement::debugDumpParams() example with named parameters
<?php
/* Execute a prepared statement by binding PHP variables */
$calories = 150;
$colour = 'red';
$sth = $dbh->prepare('SELECT name, colour, calories
FROM fruit
WHERE calories < :calories AND colour = :colour');
$sth->bindParam(':calories', $calories, PDO::PARAM_INT);
$sth->bindValue(':colour', $colour, PDO::PARAM_STR, 12);
$sth->execute();
$sth->debugDumpParams();
?>
The above example will output:
SQL: [96] SELECT name, colour, calories
FROM fruit
WHERE calories < :calories AND colour = :colour
Params: 2
Key: Name: [9] :calories
paramno=-1
name=[9] ":calories"
is_param=1
param_type=1
Key: Name: [7] :colour
paramno=-1
name=[7] ":colour"
is_param=1
param_type=2
Example #2 PDOStatement::debugDumpParams() example with unnamed parameters
<?php
/* Execute a prepared statement by binding PHP variables */
$calories = 150;
$colour = 'red';
$name = 'apple';
$sth = $dbh->prepare('SELECT name, colour, calories
FROM fruit
WHERE calories < ? AND colour = ?');
$sth->bindParam(1, $calories, PDO::PARAM_INT);
$sth->bindValue(2, $colour, PDO::PARAM_STR);
$sth->execute();
$sth->debugDumpParams();
?>
The above example will output:
SQL: [82] SELECT name, colour, calories
FROM fruit
WHERE calories < ? AND colour = ?
Params: 2
Key: Position #0:
paramno=0
name=[0] ""
is_param=1
param_type=1
Key: Position #1:
paramno=1
name=[0] ""
is_param=1
param_type=2

As noted, this doesn’t actually simply print the prepared statement with data to be executed.
For trouble shooting purposes, I find the following useful:
<?php
function parms($string,$data) {
$indexed=$data==array_values($data);
foreach($data as $k=>$v) {
if(is_string($v)) $v="'$v'";
if($indexed) $string=preg_replace('/\?/',$v,$string,1);
else $string=str_replace(":$k",$v,$string);
}
return $string;
}
// Index Parameters
$string='INSERT INTO stuff(name,value) VALUES (?,?)';
$data=array('Fred',23);
// Named Parameters
$string='INSERT INTO stuff(name,value) VALUES (:name,:value)';
$data=array('name'=>'Fred','value'=>23);
print parms($string,$data);
?>
It's not you, in PHP 5.2.6 and close versions this has an infinite loop bug. Upgrade to the latest php where it has been fixed.
This function doesn't have a return, so if you want to do something with it you'll have to do something like
<?php
function pdo_debugStrParams($stmt) {
ob_start();
$stmt->debugDumpParams();
$r = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();
return $r;
}
// omitted: connect to the database and prepare a statement
echo '<pre>'.htmlspecialchars(pdo_debugStrParams($stmt)).'</pre>';
?
