为什么 PDO fetchColumn() 在这里不起作用

我正在尝试计算查询返回的行数，我正在这样做：

$what = 'Norman';
$stmt = $conn->prepare('select names as names from names where names = :what');
$stmt->bindParam('what', $what);
$stmt->execute();
$rows = $stmt->fetchColumn();

echo 'Rows found '.$rows;

$stmt->setFetchMode(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);

while($row = $stmt->fetch())
{  
    echo $row['names'] . "<br>";
}

但我却一无所获。只是空白。这样做的正确方法是什么？

看来您在这里使用了不正确的功能。

$what = 'Norman';
$stmt = $conn->prepare('select names from names where names = ?');
$stmt->execute(array($what));
$rows = $stmt->fetchAll(); // it will actually return all the rows

echo 'Rows found '.count($rows);

foreach ($rows as $row)
{  
    echo $row['names'] . "<br>";
}

或者你可以通过获取一维数组而不是二维数组来使其更整洁

$rows = $stmt->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_COLUMN, 0); 

echo 'Rows found '.count($rows);

foreach ($rows as $name)
{  
    echo $name . "<br>";
}

但你必须先检查 PDO 错误
