      <p>
        The <code class="methodname">DBcursor-&gt;close()</code> method discards the cursor.
    </p>
      <p>
         It is possible for the <code class="methodname">DBcursor-&gt;close()</code> method to return <a href="../../programmer_reference/program_errorret.html#program_errorret.DB_LOCK_DEADLOCK" class="olink">DB_LOCK_DEADLOCK</a>,
         signaling that any enclosing transaction should be aborted.  If the
         application is already intending to abort the transaction, this error
         should be ignored, and the application should proceed.
    </p>
      <p>
         After the <code class="methodname">DBcursor-&gt;close()</code> method has been called, regardless of its return value,
         you can not use the cursor handle again.
    </p>
      <p>
	It is not required to close the cursor explicitly before closing the database handle or the transaction handle that owns this cursor
because, closing a database handle or a transaction handle closes those open cursors.
	
    </p>
      <p>
	However, it is recommended that you always close all cursor handles immediately after
	their use to promote concurrency and to release resources such as page locks.

         The <code class="methodname">DBcursor-&gt;close()</code> <span>
