Advantages and Disadvantages of Cursor?

Answer

Hi All,

In pl/sql if you want perform some actions more than one
records you should user these cursors only. By using these
cursors you process the query records. you can easily move
the records and you can exit from procedure when you
required by using cursor attributes.


disadvantage:

using implicit/explicit cursors are depended by Situation.
If the result set is less than 50 or 100 records it is
better to go for implicit cursors. if the result set is
large then you should use explicit cursors. other wise it
will put burden on CPU.
