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. <span>This is true of both
|
||
base API and DPL cursors.</span>
|
||
</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. <span>This is
|
||
true of both base API and DPL cursors.</span>

||

|

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
|
||
<span>or store</span> 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>.
