PHP original manual for oci_set_client_identifier [ show | php.net ]

oci_set_client_identifier

(PHP 5 >= 5.3.2, PHP 7, PECL OCI8 >= 1.4.0)

oci_set_client_identifier — Sets the client identifier

Description

bool oci_set_client_identifier ( resource $connection , string $client_identifier )

Sets the client identifier used by various database components to identify lightweight application users who authenticate as the same database user.

The client identifier is registered with the database when the next 'roundtrip' from PHP to the database occurs, typically when an SQL statement is executed.

The identifier can subsequently be queried, for example with SELECT SYS_CONTEXT('USERENV','CLIENT_IDENTIFIER') FROM DUAL. Database administration views such as V$SESSION will also contain the value. It can be used with DBMS_MONITOR.CLIENT_ID_TRACE_ENABLE for tracing and can also be used for auditing.

The value may be retained across page requests that use the same persistent connection.

Parameters

connection

An Oracle connection identifier, returned by oci_connect(), oci_pconnect(), or oci_new_connect().

client_identifier

User chosen string up to 64 bytes long.

Return Values

Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.

Examples

Example #1 Setting the client identifier to the application user

<?php

// Find the application user's login name
session_start();
$un = my_validate_session($_SESSION['username']);
$c = oci_connect('myschema', 'welcome', 'localhost/XE');

// Tell Oracle who that user is
oci_set_client_identifier($c, $un);

// The next roundtrip to the database will piggyback the identifier
$s = oci_parse($c, 'select mydata from mytable');
oci_execute($s);

// ...

?>

Notes

Caution

Roundtrip Gotcha

Some but not all OCI8 functions cause roundtrips. Roundtrips to the database may not occur with queries when result caching is enabled.
