    Description

    I think it would be useful to be able to get the columns/fields from a Row or Rowset from a Row you could do

     
function getColumns()
{
    return array_keys( $this->_data )
}

    From a RowSet you will need to get the first Row (if there is one) then run the same getColumns call. I perdonally would use this when building a sort form so providing the ability to sort or not sort via one or more columns in the database.

    On second review, this functionality already exists (albeit in a slightly roundabout way). Both Row and Rowset supply a {{getTable()}} method, so this is possible:

    
$columns = $row->getTable()->info('cols');

    I don't see any real added value to providing a {{getColumns}} wrapper around this at this late stage in ZFv1's lifecycle. If anyone disagrees, please feel free to reopen the issue.
