pg_set_client_encoding

(PHP 4 >= 4.0.3, PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)

pg_set_client_encoding Set the client encoding

Description

pg_set_client_encoding(PgSql\Connection $connection = ?, string $encoding): int

pg_set_client_encoding() sets the client encoding and returns 0 if success or -1 if error.

PostgreSQL will automatically convert data in the backend database encoding into the frontend encoding.

Note:

The function used to be called pg_setclientencoding().

Parameters

connection

An PgSql\Connection instance. When connection is unspecified, the default connection is used. The default connection is the last connection made by pg_connect() or pg_pconnect().

Warning

As of PHP 8.1.0, using the default connection is deprecated.

encoding

The required client encoding. One of SQL_ASCII, EUC_JP, EUC_CN, EUC_KR, EUC_TW, UNICODE, MULE_INTERNAL, LATINX (X=1...9), KOI8, WIN, ALT, SJIS, BIG5 or WIN1250.

The exact list of available encodings depends on your PostgreSQL version, so check your PostgreSQL manual for a more specific list.

Return Values

Returns 0 on success or -1 on error.

Changelog

Version Description
8.1.0 The connection parameter expects an PgSql\Connection instance now; previously, a resource was expected.
