|
|
<function>mysql_list_tables</function> takes a database name and
|
|
returns a result pointer much like the
|
|
<function>mysql_query</function> function.
|
|
Use the <function>mysql_tablename</function> function to
|
|
traverse this result pointer, or any function for result tables,
|
|
such as <function>mysql_fetch_array</function>.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
The <parameter>database</parameter> parameter is the name of the
|
|
database to retrieve the list of tables from. Upon failure,
|
|
<function>mysql_list_tables</function> returns &false;.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
For downward compatibility, the function alias named
|
|
<function>mysql_listtables</function> can be used. This is
|
|
deprecated however and is not recommended.

|
</para>
|
|
<note>
|
|
<para>
|
|
The function <function>mysql_list_tables</function> is deprecated. It
|
|
is preferable to use <function>mysql_query</function> to issue a
|
|
SQL <literal>SHOW TABLES [FROM db_name] [LIKE 'pattern']</literal> statement instead.
