how can you read from database and write to the http stream. php & mysql

It is like continue getting data from mysql using PHP and simultaneously stream out to the http.

Like in java we can write into ServletOutput stream?

The size of the开发者_如何学JAVA data can be like 200 MB.

Thanks

Here's a script that executes several select statements on a table and writes each result row to the output stream. It really does no differently than echoing, but maybe you can adapt it, e.g., by using a different stream wrapper (predefined or custom). Add security and error-checking code, of course.

Supposing a table containing fields "name" and "home_country".

$dsn = 'mysql:host=localhost;dbname=test';
$uname = 'uname';
$pword = 'password';
$countries = array('Mexico', 'Egypt', 'Estonia', 'Australia');

$pdo = new PDO($dsn, $uname, $pword);
$qry_stmnt = 'SELECT name, home_country 
              FROM places_test 
              WHERE home_country = :country';
$stmnt = $pdo->prepare($qry_stmnt);

$out_stream = fopen('php://output', 'w');
foreach ($countries as $country) {
    $result = $stmnt->execute(array(':country' => $country));
    $obj = $stmnt->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_OBJ);
    foreach ($obj as $row) {
        fwrite($out_stream, $row->name . ': ' . $row->home_country . '<br />');
    }
}
fclose($out_stream);

I think you are looking to flush the output buffer in PHP. For more information see the flush function and the other output control functions in the PHP manual.

It sounds like you need PHP or some equivalent... Can you be more specific as to what you are trying to do?
