<h3><pre>
#include &lt;db.h&gt;
<p>
int
DBcursor-&gt;c_close(DBC *cursor);
</pre></h3>
<h1>Description</h1>
<p>The DBcursor-&gt;c_close function discards the cursor.
<p>It is possible for the DBcursor-&gt;c_close function to return
<a href="../ref/program/errorret.html#DB_LOCK_DEADLOCK">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>Once DBcursor-&gt;c_close has been called, regardless of its return, the
cursor handle may not be used again.
<p>The DBcursor-&gt;c_close function returns a non-zero error value on failure and 0 on success.
<h1>Errors</h1>
<p>The DBcursor-&gt;c_close function may fail and return a non-zero error for the following conditions:
<p><dl compact>
<p><dt>DB_LOCK_DEADLOCK<dd>The operation was selected to resolve a deadlock.
</dl>
<p><dl compact>
<p><dt>EINVAL<dd>An invalid flag value or parameter was specified.
<p>The cursor was previously closed.
</dl>
<p>The DBcursor-&gt;c_close function may fail and return a non-zero error for errors specified for other Berkeley DB and C library or system functions.
If a catastrophic error has occurred, the DBcursor-&gt;c_close function may fail and return
<a href="../ref/program/errorret.html#DB_RUNRECOVERY">DB_RUNRECOVERY</a>, in which case all subsequent Berkeley DB calls will fail
in the same way.
