My understanding of the loop processing, but we're talking Java here so most bets are off.

From what i've always known is you do not have to "close" a cursor when you loop it with a FOR LOOP. But if you explicitly say OPEN, FETCH... etc, then you need a CLOSE. That's just off the top of my head, though. Lyall

All,

        First off, Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukah, Happy Kwanza, etc... to one and All.

        I'm trying to track down a perception that some of our developers have that there is no longer, post Oracle 10g R1, a need for their applications to close cursors. I've searched the Oracle docs, Metalink, and Google to no avail. Anyone else hear about this "feature"?
