# mysql\_stmt\_warning\_count

## Syntax

```c
int mysql_stmt_warning_count(MYSQL_STMT * stmt);
```

## Parameter

* `stmt` - a statement handle, which was previously allocated by [mysql\_stmt\_init()](/docs/connectors/mariadb-connector-c/api-prepared-statement-functions/mysql_stmt_init.md).

## Description

Returns the number of warnings from the last executed statement, or zero if there are no warnings. This function was added in Connector/C 3.0.

## Return Value

Returns the number of warnings.

{% hint style="info" %}
For retrieving warning messages you should use the SQL command [SHOW WARNINGS](/docs/server/reference/sql-statements/administrative-sql-statements/show/show-warnings.md). If [SQL\_MODE](/docs/server/server-management/variables-and-modes/sql_mode.md) `TRADITIONAL` is enabled an error instead of warning will be returned. For detailed information check the server documentation.
{% endhint %}
