+<h1 align=center>Closing a cursor</h1>
+<p>The <a href="../../api_c/dbc_close.html">DBcursor-&gt;c_close</a> function is the standard interface for closing a cursor,
+after which the cursor may no longer be used. Although cursors are
+implicitly closed when the database they point to are closed, it is good
+programming practice to explicitly close cursors. In addition, in
+transactional systems, cursors may not exist outside of a transaction and
+so must be explicitly closed.
