Thread: I cant find it or I'm just lazy ?

    I need two answers I did not find in documentation :

How can I get exact number of rows in DECLARED CURSOR ?
OK, I can FETCH until NULL, but this does not fits my needs !

How can I get information is TRANSACTION already started ?
(TRANSACTION LEVEL)

The interface I'm using is libpq.

    Regards !

You need to move to the end of the cursor. When you declare a cursor it
doesn't run the query yet. You have to tell it to run the query before it
can tell you how many rows it is. I think the command is MOVE.
