The <code class="methodname">DBcursor-&gt;dup()</code> method creates a new cursor that uses the same
transaction and locker ID as the original cursor. This is useful when
an application is using locking and requires two or more cursors in
the same thread of control.
</p>
<p>
The <code class="methodname">DBcursor-&gt;dup()</code> <span>
<span>
method returns a non-zero error value on failure and 0 on success.

The newly created cursor is initialized to refer to the same position
in the database as the original cursor (if any) and hold the same
locks (if any). If the DB_POSITION flag is not specified, or the
original cursor does not hold a database position and locks, the
created cursor is uninitialized and will behave like a cursor newly
created using the <a class="xref" href="dbcursor.html" title="DB-&gt;cursor()">DB-&gt;cursor()</a>

<p>
When a client synchronizes with the master, it is possible for committed
transactions to be rolled back. This invalidates all the database and cursor
handles opened in the replication environment. Once this occurs, an attempt to use
such a handle will
return <code class="literal">DB_REP_HANDLE_DEAD</code>.
The application will need to discard the handle and open a new one in order to
continue processing.
