Prepared Statement API Reference

A prepared statement or a parameterized statement is used to execute the same statement repeatedly with high efficiency. The prepared statement execution consists of two stages: prepare and execute.

• At the prepare stage a statement template is sent to the database server. The server performs a syntax check and initializes server internal resources for later use.
• During execute the client binds parameter values and sends them to the server. The server creates a statement from the statement template and the bound values to execute it using the previously created internal resources.

The MariaDB server supports using anonymous, positional placeholder with ?(question mark).
