Codeigniter -> function using empty_table


/** * Empty Table * * Compiles a delete string and runs "DELETE FROM table" * * @param   string  the table to empty * @return  object */public function empty_table($table = '')

Apparently you can't do this

$this->db->empty_table('companyDetails,hostingDetails,layoutDetails');

Instead you will have to call empty_table three times:

$this->db->empty_table('companyDetails');$this->db->empty_table('hostingDetails');$this->db->empty_table('layoutDetails');

You can always hack CodeIgniter DB_active_rec.php file so that it fits your needs.


In your controller you have to load the model first (if it's not auto loaded)

$this->load->model('quote'); // Assuming your model name is 'quote'

before you use the function from that model as you used in your controller as follows

$data['companyContact'] = $this->quote->getCompanyDetails()->companyContact;

and load the view at last, after all code has been executed even after following line

$this->quote->removeQuote();

Just checked in CI doc empty_table doesn't accept multiple table names.


SOLUTION ONE

$this->db->truncate('companyDetails');$this->db->truncate('hostingDetails');$this->db->truncate('layoutDetails');

SOLUTION TWO

 function emptytablesbycomma($stringoftables) {            $array_tablenames = explode(",", $stringoftables);            if (!empty($array_tablenames)) {                foreach ($array_tablenames as $tablename) {                    $this->db->truncate($tablename);                }            }        }

Usage

$stringoftables='companyDetails,hostingDetails,layoutDetails';$this->emptytablesbycomma($stringoftables);
