Greetings,
Does anyone know exactly when an explicit cursor is initialized in pl/sql? I
understand I may need to supply more info, but I am no pl/sql wizard and don't
know exactly what info is needed.
I have a package with multiple procedures. One those procedures contains
additional procedures. And one of those additional procedures has some
cursors. Sorta like this:
Package
- procedure1
- procedure2
- procedure3
- procedure3a
- cursor 1
- cursor 2
Would the cursors be initialized when procedure3 is called or when procedure3a
is called? I would guess procedure3a but the developer is seeing some
weirdness where it looks like it's when procedure3 is called.
There is no explicit "open cursor" call. It is used in a for loop, so I think
oracle opens it automagically. But, again, I am trying to determine the
initialization. When is the cursor loaded with data?
Any/all ideas/suggestions welcome.
Thanks,
-joe
