Cursors provide a mechanism by which you can iterate over the records in a
database. Using cursors, you can get, put, and delete database records. If
a database allows duplicate records, then cursors are
<span>the easiest way that you can access anything
other than the first record for a given key.</span>
</p>
<p>
This chapter introduces cursors. It explains how to open and close them, how
to use them to modify databases, and how to use them with duplicate records.

<h2 class="title" style="clear: both"><a id="openCursor"></a>Opening and Closing Cursors</h2>
</div>
</div>
<div></div>
</div>
<p>
To use a cursor, you must open it using the <tt class="methodname">Database.openCursor()</tt>
method. When you open a
cursor, you can optionally pass it a <tt class="classname">CursorConfig</tt>
object to set cursor properties.
<span>
The cursor properties that you can set allows you to
control the isolation level that the cursor will obey. See
the
<i class="citetitle">Berkeley DB Getting Started with Transaction Processing</i> guide for more
information.
</span>
</p>
<p>For example:</p>
<a id="java_cursor1"></a>
<pre class="programlisting">package db.GettingStarted;
import com.sleepycat.db.Cursor;
import com.sleepycat.db.Database;
import com.sleepycat.db.DatabaseException;
import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
...
Database myDatabase = null;
Cursor myCursor = null;
try {
myDatabase = new Database("myDB", null, null);
myCursor = myDatabase.openCursor(null, null);
} catch (FileNotFoundException fnfe) {
// Exception handling goes here ...
} catch (DatabaseException dbe) {
// Exception handling goes here ...
}</pre>
<p>
To close the cursor, call the <tt class="methodname">Cursor.close()</tt>
method. Note that if you close a database that has cursors open in it,
then it will throw an exception and close any open cursors for you.
For best results, close your cursors from within a
<tt class="literal">finally</tt> block.
</p>
<a id="java_cursor2"></a>
<pre class="programlisting">package db.GettingStarted;
import com.sleepycat.db.Cursor;
import com.sleepycat.db.Database;
...
try {
...
} catch ... {
} finally {
try {
if (myCursor != null) {
myCursor.close();
}
if (myDatabase != null) {
myDatabase.close();
}
} catch(DatabaseException dbe) {
System.err.println("Error in close: " + dbe.toString());
}
} </pre>
