<h1 align=center>Closing a cursor</h1>
<p>The <a href="../../api_c/dbc_close.html">DBcursor->c_close</a> function is the standard interface for closing a cursor,
after which the cursor may no longer be used. Although cursors are
implicitly closed when the database they point to are closed, it is good
programming practice to explicitly close cursors. In addition, in
transactional systems, cursors may not exist outside of a transaction and
so must be explicitly closed.
