PHP + MYSQLI: Variable parameter/result binding with prepared statements

Question

In a project that I\'m about to wrap up, I\'ve written and implemented an object-relational mapping solution for PHP. Before the doubters and dreamers cry out \"how on earth

Answer 1

The more modern way to bind parameters dynamically is via the splat/spread operator (...).

Assuming:

• you have a non-empty array of values to bind to your query and
• your array values are suitably processed as string type values in the context of the query and
• your input array is called $values

Code for PHP5.6 and higher:

$stmt->bind_param(str_repeat('s', count($values)), ...$values);
