# PDO->sqliteCreateAggregate()

(no version information, might be only in CVS)

PDO->sqliteCreateAggregate() -- Registers an aggregating User Defined Function for use in SQL statements

## Descrição

class PDO {
bool sqliteCreateAggregate ( string function_name, callback step_func, callback finalize_func [, int num_args] )
}

Atenção
Esta função é EXPERIMENTAL. Isso quer dizer que o comportamento desta função e seu nome, incluindo TUDO o que está documentado aqui pode mudar em futuras versões do PHP, SEM QUALQUER NOTIFICAÇÃO. Esteja avisado, e use esta função por sua própria conta e risco.

This method is similar to PDO->sqliteCreateFunction() except that it registers functions that can be used to calculate a result aggregated across all the rows of a query.

The key difference between this method and PDO->sqliteCreateFunction() is that two functions are required to manage the aggregate.

## Parâmetros

`function_name`

  The name of the function used in SQL statements.

`step_func`

  Callback function called for each row of the result set. Your PHP function should accumulate the result and store it in the aggregation context.

  This function need to be defined as: `step` ( mixed context, int rownumber, mixed value1 [, mixed value2 [, mixed ..]] )

  `context` will be `NULL` for the first row; on subsequent rows it will have the value that was previously returned from the step function; you should use this to maintain the aggregate state.

  `rownumber` will hold the current row number.

`finalize_func`

  Callback function to aggregate the "stepped" data from each row. Once all the rows have been processed, this function will be called and it should then take the data from the aggregation context and return the result. Callback functions should return a type understood by SQLite (i.e. scalar type).

  This function need to be defined as: `fini` ( mixed context, int rownumber )

  `context` will hold the return value from the very last call to the step function.

  `rownumber` will hold the number of rows over which the aggregate was performed.

  The return value of this function will be used as the return value for the aggregate.

`num_args`

  Hint to the SQLite parser if the callback function accepts a predetermined number of arguments.

## Valores de retornado

Retorna `TRUE` em caso de sucesso ou `FALSE` em falhas.

## Exemplos

Exemplo 1. max_length aggregation function example
`<?php $data = array( 'one', 'two', 'three', 'four', 'five', 'six', 'seven', 'eight', 'nine', 'ten', ); $db = new PDO('sqlite::memory:'); $db->exec("CREATE TABLE strings(a)"); $insert = $db->prepare('INSERT INTO strings VALUES (?)'); foreach ($data as $str) { $insert->execute(array($str)); } $insert = null; function max_len_step(&$context, $rownumber, $string) { if (strlen($string) > $context) { $context = strlen($string); } } function max_len_finalize(&$context, $rownumber) { return $context; } $db->sqliteCreateAggregate('max_len', 'max_len_step', 'max_len_finalize'); var_dump($db->query('SELECT max_len(a) from strings')->fetchAll()); ?>`

In this example, we are creating an aggregating function that will calculate the length of the longest string in one of the columns of the table. For each row, the `max_len_step` function is called and passed a `context` parameter. The context parameter is just like any other PHP variable and be set to hold an array or even an object value. In this example, we are simply using it to hold the maximum length we have seen so far; if the `string` has a length longer than the current maximum, we update the context to hold this new maximum length.

After all of the rows have been processed, SQLite calls the `max_len_finalize` function to determine the aggregate result. Here, we could perform some kind of calculation based on the data found in the `context`. In our simple example though, we have been calculating the result as the query progressed, so we simply need to return the context value.

> Dica: It is NOT recommended for you to store a copy of the values in the context and then process them at the end, as you would cause SQLite to use a lot of memory to process the query - just think of how much memory you would need if a million rows were stored in memory, each containing a string 32 bytes in length.

> Dica: You can use PDO->sqliteCreateFunction() and PDO->sqliteCreateAggregate() to override SQLite native SQL functions.

> Nota: This method is not available with the SQLite2 driver. Use the old style sqlite API for that instead.
