What is the use of cursor ? how cursor allocate context area for executing the sql statement?
Answer Posted / sowmya
Hi
cursors allow row -by-row processing of the resultsets
Types of cursors are: static,dynamic,
forward-only,keyset-driven,
disadvantages of cursors are : each time you fetch a row
from the cursor,it results in a network roundtrip,where are
as normal select query makes only one round trip
cursors are costly as they need temparory storage.
