SYMPTOMS
BUG #: 15939 (NT: 6.50)
When attempting to define an ESQL-C cursor using the SCROLL or INSENSITIVE keywords, the precompiler generates a syntax error.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft SQL Server Embedded SQL for C Programmer's Toolkit version 6.5. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
MORE INFORMATION
A SCROLL cursor allows first, last, and backwards fetch operations.
EXEC SQL SET CURSORTYPE CUR_STANDARD; EXEC SQL SET SCROLLOPTION KEYSET; EXEC SQL DECLARE curAuthor CURSOR FOR SELECT au_fname from authors;
An INSENSITIVE cursor has a fixed membership (defined at open) and does not allow updates.
EXEC SQL SET SCROLLOPTION KEYSET; EXEC SQL DECLARE curAuthor CURSOR FOR SELECT au_fname from authors FOR READ ONLY;
