(PHP 5, PECL OCI8 >= 1.1.0)

oci_new_collectionAllocates new collection object

Description

OCI-Collection oci_new_collection ( resource $connection , string $tdo [, string $schema = NULL ] )

Allocates a new collection object.

Parameters

connection

An Oracle connection identifier, returned by oci_connect() or oci_pconnect().

tdo

Should be a valid named type (uppercase).

schema

Should point to the scheme, where the named type was created. The name of the current user is the default value.

Return Values

Returns a new OCICollection object or FALSE on error.

Notes

Note:

In PHP versions before 5.0.0 you must use ocinewcollection() instead. This name still can be used, it was left as alias of oci_new_collection() for downwards compatability. This, however, is deprecated and not recommended.

This is a woefully underdocumented feature (at least here), but being able to bind collections to prepared statements instead of rolling your own SQL arrays is a massive improvement in terms of safety and conveinience, and a feature I think more DBMS should have in their API.

You can basically send collections of the types listed by the following query :

SELECT * FROM SYS.ALL_TYPES WHERE TYPECODE = 'COLLECTION' AND TYPE_NAME LIKE 'ODCI%'

Those are all collections that can contain any number of the SQL type indicated in their name. 

<?php
$my_array 
= ["foo""bar""baz"];

$my_collection oci_new_collection($conn'ODCIVARCHAR2LIST''SYS');

foreach(
$my_array as $elem) {
   
$cell_collection->append($elem);
}

oci_bind_by_name($statement":collection"$my_collection, -1SQLT_NTY);
?>

The collection ressource can be appended with numbers, strings or dates (which need to be passed as strings in the "DD-MON-YY" format, such as "27-MAR-18", apparently) depending on the types supported by the collection you're using, and none of these appear to support timestamps or any of the more complex data types.

Code for the OCI collection type, for reference :
