I generally try to use a descriptive name for cursors (i.e. CustomerAddressData for customer address table)


Thanks,
Tommy Holden

I've never worried about unique cursor names.
I either try to have them named something meaningful for the program or else I use c1.
It would be nice to hear from some of the gurus about this.

I am confused about "unique cursor name" warning. Only Program X has
embedded SQL. So let us say I use a unique cursor name PGMX_C1, which
is not used in anywhere else on the LPAR. When Program A & B call
Program X, is there a chance that I will run into an issue?

Never heard of someone getting bit by that.

We have -- not with reading each other's cursors, but with
ODP's (or something) not getting rebuilt when they should. Unique
cursor names will insure that SQL correctly handles everything it
should. You see, in our case we have the same object name in
multiple libraries -- with initial library lists controlling which
libraries are available at any given time. But we have run into
issues when we need to go across libraries against the same object
name. Activation groups are one thing, but unique cursor names are the rest of the picture.

Sincerely,
