当我们定义了一个很复杂的cursor,这个cursor需要执行很长时间,在这个cursor执行的过程中,其它用户又修改了该cursor所引用的表的数据时,cursor得到的是修改前还是修改后的数据呢?答案是cursor得到的始终是cursor在open时的数据,接下来我们将通过一个小实验来验证。首先,session1执行以下匿名块,该匿名块通过cursor取得t1表的所有数据,不过在open cursor后将暂停30秒,在这30秒中我们将在session2中删除t1表的所有数据:DECLARECURSOR c ISSELECT deptno,dname,locFROM t1;TYPE dept_tab IS TABLE OF c%ROWTYPE;l_depts dept_tab;BEGINdbms_output.put_line('opening c: ' ||to_char(SYSDATE, 'yyyy-mm-dd hh24:mi:ss'));OPEN c;dbms_lock.sleep(30);dbms_output.put_line('after sleep: ' ||to_char(SYSDATE, 'yyyy-mm-dd hh24:mi:ss'));FETCH c BULK COLLECTINTO l_depts;CLOSE c;FOR i IN l_depts.FIRST .. l_depts.LASTLOOPdbms_output.put_line(l_depts(i).deptno || ', ' || l_depts(i).dname || ', ' || l_depts(i).loc);END LOOP;END;第二步,session2执行以下语句:22:35:21 SQL> select * from t1;DEPTNO DNAME LOC------ -------------- -------------10 ACCOUNTING NEW YORK20 RESEARCH DALLAS30 SALES CHICAGO40 OPERATIONS BOSTON22:35:29 SQL> delete from t1;4 rows deleted22:35:33 SQL> commit;Commit complete22:35:35 SQL> select * from t1;DEPTNO DNAME LOC------ -------------- -------------22:35:38 SQL> 最后,观察session1的输出:opening c: 2011-10-26 22:35:25after sleep: 2011-10-26 22:35:5510, ACCOUNTING, NEW YORK20, RESEARCH, DALLAS30, SALES, CHICAGO40, OPERATIONS, BOSTON由于在22:35:25我们就已经打开了游标,所以结果依然能输出t1表的所有数据,尽管在22:35:35之前我们已经删除了t1表的所有数据并提交,而cursor取数据(fetch)发生在22:35:55之后。ref:The OPEN statement executes the query associated with a cursor. It allocates database resources to process the query and identifies the result set -- the rows that match the query conditions.http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14261/open_statement.htm#i35173 |
