    public class Cursor

extends Object

A database cursor. Cursors are used for operating on collections of records, for iterating over a database, and for saving handles to individual records, so that they can be modified after they have been read.

Cursors which are opened with a transaction instance are transactional cursors and may be used by multiple threads, but only serially. That is, the application must serialize access to the handle. Non-transactional cursors, opened with a null transaction instance, may not be used by multiple threads.

If the cursor is to be used to perform operations on behalf of a transaction, the cursor must be opened and closed within the context of that single transaction.

Once the cursor close method has been called, the handle may not be accessed again, regardless of the close method's success or failure.

To obtain a cursor with default attributes:

>          Cursor cursor = myDatabase.openCursor(txn, null);

To customize the attributes of a cursor, use a CursorConfig object.

>          CursorConfig config = new CursorConfig();
>          config.setDirtyRead(true);
>          Cursor cursor = myDatabase.openCursor(txn, config);

Modifications to the database during a sequential scan will be reflected in the scan; that is, records inserted behind a cursor will not be returned while records inserted in front of a cursor will be returned.

Method Detail

### getDatabase

    public Database getDatabase()

  Returns the Database handle associated with this Cursor.

  Returns:
    The Database handle associated with this Cursor.

### getConfig

    public CursorConfig getConfig()

  Returns this cursor's configuration.

  This may differ from the configuration used to open this object if the cursor existed previously.

  Returns:
    This cursor's configuration.
  Throws:
    `DatabaseException` - if a failure occurs.

### getCacheMode

    public CacheMode getCacheMode()

  Returns the `CacheMode` used for operations performed using this cursor. For a newly opened cursor, the default is `CacheMode.DEFAULT`.

  Returns:
    the CacheMode object used for operations performed with this cursor.
  See Also:
    `CacheMode`

### setCacheMode

    public void setCacheMode(CacheMode cacheMode)

  Changes the `CacheMode` used for operations performed using this cursor. For a newly opened cursor, the default is `CacheMode.DEFAULT`.

  Parameters:
    `cacheMode` - is the `CacheMode` to use for subsequent operations using this cursor.
  See Also:
    `CacheMode`

### close

    public void close()
               throws DatabaseException

  Discards the cursor.

  This method may throw a DeadlockException, signaling the enclosing transaction should be aborted. If the application is already intending to abort the transaction, this error can be ignored, and the application should proceed.

  The cursor handle may not be used again after this method has been called, regardless of the method's success or failure.

  Throws:
    `DatabaseException` - if a failure occurs.

### count

    public int count()
              throws DatabaseException

  Returns a count of the number of data items for the key to which the cursor refers.

  Returns:
    A count of the number of data items for the key to which the cursor refers.
  Throws:
    `DeadlockException` - if the operation was selected to resolve a deadlock.
    `DatabaseException` - if a failure occurs.

### dup

    public Cursor dup(boolean samePosition)
               throws DatabaseException

  Returns a new cursor with the same transaction and locker ID as the original cursor.

  This is useful when an application is using locking and requires two or more cursors in the same thread of control.

  Parameters:
    `samePosition` - If true, the newly created cursor is initialized to refer to the same position in the database as the original cursor (if any) and hold the same locks (if any). If false, or the original cursor does not hold a database position and locks, the returned cursor is uninitialized and will behave like a newly created cursor.
  Returns:
    A new cursor with the same transaction and locker ID as the original cursor.
  Throws:
    `DatabaseException` - if a failure occurs.

### delete

    public OperationStatus delete()
                           throws DatabaseException

  Deletes the key/data pair to which the cursor refers.

  When called on a cursor opened on a database that has been made into a secondary index, this method the key/data pair from the primary database and all secondary indices.

  The cursor position is unchanged after a delete, and subsequent calls to cursor functions expecting the cursor to refer to an existing key will fail.

  Returns:
    an OperationStatus for the operation.
  Throws:
    `DeadlockException` - if the operation was selected to resolve a deadlock.
    `DatabaseException` - if a failure occurs.

### put

    public OperationStatus put(DatabaseEntry key,
                               DatabaseEntry data)
                        throws DatabaseException

  Stores a key/data pair into the database.

  If the put method succeeds, the cursor is always positioned to refer to the newly inserted item. If the put method fails for any reason, the state of the cursor will be unchanged.

  If the key already appears in the database and duplicates are supported, the new data value is inserted at the correct sorted location. If the key already appears in the database and duplicates are not supported, the data associated with the key will be replaced.

  Parameters:
    `key` - the key `DatabaseEntry` operated on.
    `data` - the data `DatabaseEntry` stored.
  Returns:
    an OperationStatus for the operation.
  Throws:
    `DeadlockException` - if the operation was selected to resolve a deadlock.
    `IllegalArgumentException` - if an invalid parameter was specified.
    `DatabaseException` - if a failure occurs.

### putNoOverwrite

    public OperationStatus putNoOverwrite(DatabaseEntry key,
                                          DatabaseEntry data)
                                   throws DatabaseException

  Stores a key/data pair into the database.

  If the putNoOverwrite method succeeds, the cursor is always positioned to refer to the newly inserted item. If the putNoOverwrite method fails for any reason, the state of the cursor will be unchanged.

  If the key already appears in the database, putNoOverwrite will return `OperationStatus.KEYEXIST`.

  Parameters:
    `key` - the key `DatabaseEntry` operated on.
    `data` - the data `DatabaseEntry` stored.
  Returns:
    an OperationStatus for the operation.
  Throws:
    `DeadlockException` - if the operation was selected to resolve a deadlock.
    `IllegalArgumentException` - if an invalid parameter was specified.
    `DatabaseException` - if a failure occurs.

### putNoDupData

    public OperationStatus putNoDupData(DatabaseEntry key,
                                        DatabaseEntry data)
                                 throws DatabaseException

  Stores a key/data pair into the database.

  If the putNoDupData method succeeds, the cursor is always positioned to refer to the newly inserted item. If the putNoDupData method fails for any reason, the state of the cursor will be unchanged.

  Insert the specified key/data pair into the database, unless a key/data pair comparing equally to it already exists in the database. If a matching key/data pair already exists in the database, `OperationStatus.KEYEXIST` is returned.

  Parameters:
    `key` - the key `DatabaseEntry` operated on.
    `data` - the data `DatabaseEntry` stored.
  Returns:
    an OperationStatus for the operation.
  Throws:
    `DeadlockException` - if the operation was selected to resolve a deadlock.
    `IllegalArgumentException` - if an invalid parameter was specified.
    `DatabaseException` - if a failure occurs.

### putCurrent

    public OperationStatus putCurrent(DatabaseEntry data)
                               throws DatabaseException

  Replaces the data in the key/data pair at the current cursor position.

  Whether the putCurrent method succeeds or fails for any reason, the state of the cursor will be unchanged.

  Overwrite the data of the key/data pair to which the cursor refers with the specified data item. This method will return OperationStatus.NOTFOUND if the cursor currently refers to an already-deleted key/data pair.

  For a database that does not support duplicates, the data may be changed by this method. If duplicates are supported, the data may be changed only if a custom partial comparator is configured and the comparator considers the old and new data to be equal (that is, the comparator returns zero). For more information on partial comparators see `DatabaseConfig.setDuplicateComparator(java.util.Comparator)`.

  If the old and new data are unequal according to the comparator, a `DatabaseException` is thrown. Changing the data in this case would change the sort order of the record, which would change the cursor position, and this is not allowed. To change the sort order of a record, delete it and then re-insert it.

  Parameters:
    `data` - - the data DatabaseEntry stored.
  Returns:
    an OperationStatus for the operation.
  Throws:
    `DeadlockException` - - if the operation was selected to resolve a deadlock.
    `IllegalArgumentException` - - if an invalid parameter was specified.
    `DatabaseException` - - if the old and new data are not equal according to the configured duplicate comparator or default comparator, or if a failure occurs.

### getCurrent

    public OperationStatus getCurrent(DatabaseEntry key,
                                      DatabaseEntry data,

                                             LockMode lockMode)
                                      throws DatabaseException

  Moves the cursor to the closest matching key of the database, and return the data item associated with the matching key. If the matching key has duplicate values, the first data item in the set of duplicates is returned.

  The returned key/data pair is for the smallest key greater than or equal to the specified key (as determined by the key comparison function), permitting partial key matches and range searches.

  If this method fails for any reason, the position of the cursor will be unchanged.

  Parameters:
    `key` - the key used as input and returned as output. It must be initialized with a non-null byte array by the caller.
    `data` - the data returned as output. Its byte array does not need to be initialized by the caller.
    `lockMode` - the locking attributes; if null, default attributes are used.
  Returns:
    `OperationStatus.NOTFOUND` if no matching key/data pair is found; otherwise, `OperationStatus.SUCCESS`.
  Throws:
    `NullPointerException` - if a DatabaseEntry parameter is null or does not contain a required non-null byte array.
    `DeadlockException` - if the operation was selected to resolve a deadlock.
    `IllegalArgumentException` - if an invalid parameter was specified.
    `DatabaseException` - if a failure occurs.

### getSearchBoth

    public OperationStatus getSearchBoth(DatabaseEntry key,
                                         DatabaseEntry data,
                                         LockMode lockMode)
                                  throws DatabaseException

  Moves the cursor to the specified key/data pair, where both the key and data items must match.

  If this method fails for any reason, the position of the cursor will be unchanged.

  Parameters:
    `key` - the key used as input. It must be initialized with a non-null byte array by the caller.
    `data` - the data used as input. It must be initialized with a non-null byte array by the caller.
    `lockMode` - the locking attributes; if null, default attributes are used.
  Returns:
    `OperationStatus.NOTFOUND` if no matching key/data pair is found; otherwise, `OperationStatus.SUCCESS`.
  Throws:
    `NullPointerException` - if a DatabaseEntry parameter is null or does not contain a required non-null byte array.
    `DeadlockException` - if the operation was selected to resolve a deadlock.
    `IllegalArgumentException` - if an invalid parameter was specified.
    `DatabaseException` - if a failure occurs.

### getSearchBothRange

    public OperationStatus getSearchBothRange(DatabaseEntry key,
                                              DatabaseEntry data,
                                              LockMode lockMode)
                                       throws DatabaseException

  Moves the cursor to the specified key and closest matching data item of the database.

  In the case of any database supporting sorted duplicate sets, the returned key/data pair is for the smallest data item greater than or equal to the specified data item (as determined by the duplicate comparison function), permitting partial matches and range searches in duplicate data sets.

  If this method fails for any reason, the position of the cursor will be unchanged.

  Parameters:
    `key` - the key used as input and returned as output. It must be initialized with a non-null byte array by the caller.
    `data` - the data used as input and returned as output. It must be initialized with a non-null byte array by the caller.
    `lockMode` - the locking attributes; if null, default attributes are used.
  Returns:
    `OperationStatus.NOTFOUND` if no matching key/data pair is found; otherwise, `OperationStatus.SUCCESS`.
  Throws:
    `NullPointerException` - if a DatabaseEntry parameter is null or does not contain a required non-null byte array.
    `DeadlockException` - if the operation was selected to resolve a deadlock.
    `IllegalArgumentException` - if an invalid parameter was specified.
    `DatabaseException` - if a failure occurs.
