RE: cursor not closing

Are u using the JDBC OCI driver or the Thin driver? And which version? I know the "feature" you described exists for JDBC OCI driver but not for JDBC Thin driver.

In the for what it is worth department, I had similiar issues. After the developers knocked themselves out looking for code that was not closing the cursor, I opened a tar:

In a nutshell: yet another "feature" that cursors "even though closed by the session that opened them" remain available.... this is touted as a feature since there may be a session later that could benefit from a previous cursor... this behavior will continue until max_cursors is reached and then you are done...:-(

You can remedy this situation with the _CLOSE_CACHED_OPEN_CURSORS=true init parameter.

If you are interested in more detail... my tar number is: 1921166.995
