odbc_connection_string_should_quote

Determines if an ODBC connection string value should be quoted

Description

bool odbc_connection_string_should_quote(string $str)

Determines if a string needs to be quoted for an ODBC connection string value; that is, if it contains special characters.

Note that this does not check if the string is already quoted; an already quoted string will contain characters that will make this function return true. You should call odbc_connection_string_is_quoted to check.

Parameters

str

The string to check for.

Return Values

true if the string should be quoted; false otherwise.
