I've tried using OCIColumnIsNULL() to retrieve info on which fields were NULL/NOT NULL in an Oracle database table, and the function did not return anything (using OCIColumnName, OCIColumnType, and OCIColumnSize in the same program worked fine). The script below is a simple example:

/******************************************************/
$conn = OCILogon($user, $pwd, $db);
$stmt = OCIParse($conn, "select * from $table");
OCIExecute($stmt);
$ncols = OCINumCols($stmt);
for ( $i = 1; $i <= $ncols; $i++ ) {
  echo "NAME: " . OCIColumnName($stmt,$i) . "<BR>";
  echo "TYPE: " . OCIColumnType($stmt,$i) . "<BR>";
  echo "SIZE: " . OCIColumnSize($stmt,$i) . "<BR>";
  echo "ISNULL: " . OCIColumnIsNULL($stmt,$i) . "<P>"; //Function does not return any information
}
/******************************************************/

true,

actually, what i noticed is that if you do a fetch *before* calling OCIColumnIsNULL() you then get the right results.

/******************************************************/
$conn = OCILogon($user, $pwd, $db);
$stmt = OCIParse($conn, "select * from $table");
OCIExecute($stmt);
$nrows = OCIFetchStatement($stmt, $res);  // adding this
$ncols = OCINumCols($stmt);
for ( $i = 1; $i <= $ncols; $i++ ) {
  echo "NAME: " . OCIColumnName($stmt,$i) . "<BR>";
  echo "TYPE: " . OCIColumnType($stmt,$i) . "<BR>";
  echo "SIZE: " . OCIColumnSize($stmt,$i) . "<BR>";
  echo "ISNULL: " . OCIColumnIsNULL($stmt,$i) . "<P>"; //Function does
not return any information
}
/******************************************************/

Will go to fix that.
