This function uses the same idea as the last, but instead binds the fields to a given array.
<?php
function stmt_bind_assoc (&$stmt, &$out) {
$data = mysqli_stmt_result_metadata($stmt);
$fields = array();
$out = array();
$fields[0] = $stmt;
$count = 1;
while($field = mysqli_fetch_field($data)) {
$fields[$count] = &$out[$field->name];
$count++;
}
call_user_func_array(mysqli_stmt_bind_result, $fields);
}
$stmt = $mysqli->prepare("SELECT name, userid FROM somewhere");
$stmt->execute();
$row = array();
stmt_bind_assoc($stmt, $row);
while ($stmt->fetch()) {
print_r($row);
}
?>
