Attribute
FetchRefCursor (FRC)
Purpose
Determines whether the driver returns refcursors from user-defined functions as results sets.
Valid Values
0 | 1
Behavior
If set to 1 (Enabled), the driver returns
refcursor from user-defined functions as result sets. The driver fetches all the data from
the refcursor and then closes the refcursor. If a user-defined function returns multiple
refcursors, the driver generates multiple result sets, one for each refcursor returned.
If set to 0 (Disabled), the driver returns
the cursor name for refcursor. The application must fetch the actual data from the refcursor
using the cursor name and must close the cursor before additional processing can be done on
the statement. The application must close the cursor regardless of whether it actually
fetches data from the cursor.
Default
1 (Enabled)
