new CountyMarriageSet($parms)

Up: class CountyMarriageSet

The constructor for an instance of CountyMarriageSet takes one parameter:

parameter description
$parms identifies the database records to be associated with this instance. This is an array.

$parms may be:

  • an associative array of fieldname => value pairs to define the subset of the records in the SQL table that are represented by this instance. The parameters 'offset', 'limit', 'groupby',and 'order' are reserved to set the OFFSET, LIMIT, GROUP BY and ORDER BY clauses.
  • an array of instances of the class CountyMarriage to be converted into a RecordSet.
  • If this parameter is omitted, or is null, the object is empty. That is $set->count() is zero.

The field names that may be specified in the associative array format include:

field name description synonyms
'limit' maximum number of entries to return
'offset' offset for retrieving part of the response set
'orderby' value of the ORDER BY clause to override the default from class CountyMarriage
'groupby' value of the GROUP BY clause

For example:

 $censuses       = new CountyMarriageSet(array('county' => 'Msx'));

returns all instances of CountyMarriage for Middlesex County.

The constructor adds error messages to $record->msg if it is unable to complete due to bad parameters.
