|
When you use transactional cursors with a concurrent application, remember that
|
|||
|
in the event of a deadlock you must make sure that you close your cursor before you abort and retry your
|
|||
|
transaction.
|
|||
|
</p>
|
|||
|
<p>
|
|||
|
Also, remember that when you are using the default isolation level,
|
|||
|
every time your cursor reads a record it locks
|
|||
|
that record until the encompassing transaction is resolved. This
|
|||
|
means that walking your database with a transactional cursor
|
|||
|
increases the chance of lock contention.
|
|||
|
</p>
|
|||
|
<p>
|
|||
|
For this reason, if you must routinely walk your database with a
|
|||
|
transactional cursor, consider using a reduced isolation level
|
|||
|
such as read committed.

|||

As described in <a class="xref" href="isolation.html#dirtyreads" title="Reading Uncommitted Data">Reading Uncommitted Data</a>
|
|||
|
above, it is possible to relax your transaction's isolation
|
|||
|
level such that it can read data modified but not yet committed
|
|||
|
by another transaction. You can configure this when you create
|
|||
|
your transaction handle, and when you do so then all cursors opened
|
|||
|
inside that transaction will automatically use uncommitted reads.
|
|||
|
</p>
|
|||
|
<p>
|
|||
|
You can also do this when you create a cursor handle from within
|
|||
|
a serializable transaction. When you do this, only those
|
|||
|
cursors configured for uncommitted reads uses uncommitted reads.
|
|||
|
</p>
|
|||
|
<p>
|
|||
|
Either way, you must first configure your database
|
|||
|
handle to support
|
|||
|
uncommitted reads before you can configure your transactions or
|
|||
|
your cursors to use them.
|
|||
|
</p>
|
|||
|
<p>
|
|||
|
The following example shows how to configure an individual cursor handle
|
|||
|
to read uncommitted data from within a serializable (full isolation) transaction.
|
|||
|
For an example of
|
|||
|
configuring a transaction to perform uncommitted reads in
|
|||
|
general, see <a class="xref" href="isolation.html#dirtyreads" title="Reading Uncommitted Data">Reading Uncommitted Data</a>.
