Description

Object oriented style (property):

The mysqli_get_server_version() function returns the version of the server connected to (represented by the link parameter) as an integer.

Parameters

link: Procedural style only: A link identifier returned by mysqli_connect() or mysqli_init()

The form of this version number is main_version * 10000 + minor_version * 100 + sub_version (i.e. version 4.1.0 is 40100).

Examples

Example #1 Object oriented style


<?php
$mysqli = new mysqli("localhost", "my_user", "my_password");

/* check connection */
if (mysqli_connect_errno()) {
    printf("Connect failed: %s\n", mysqli_connect_error());
    exit();
}

/* print server version */
printf("Server version: %d\n", $mysqli->server_version);

/* close connection */
$mysqli->close();
?>

Example #2 Procedural style


<?php
$link = mysqli_connect("localhost", "my_user", "my_password");

/* check connection */
if (mysqli_connect_errno()) {
    printf("Connect failed: %s\n", mysqli_connect_error());
    exit();
}

/* print server version */
printf("Server version: %d\n", mysqli_get_server_version($link));

/* close connection */
mysqli_close($link);
?>

The above example will output:

Server version: 40102


you can use this function to get the version information into 1 array quickly.


<?php


function get_server_version($link){


    $result = mysqli_get_server_version($link);


    $main_version = round($result/10000, 0);


    $minor_version = round(($result-($main_version*10000))/100, 0);


    $sub_version = $result-($minor_version*100)-($main_version*10000);


    


    return array('main_version'=>$main_version, 'minor_version'=>$minor_version, 'sub_version'=>$sub_version, 0=>$result);


}


?>
