|

|
<div><p>Applications that perform many FETCH statements in succession may
|
||
|
|
be improved by using FETCH FOR n ROWS. With this clause, you can retrieve
|
||
|
|
multiple rows of data from a table and put them into a host structure array
|
||
|
|
or row storage area with a single FETCH.</p>
|
||
|
|
<div class="section"><p>An SQL application that uses a FETCH statement without the FOR
|
||
|
|
n ROWS clause can be improved by using the multiple-row FETCH statement to
|
||
|
|
retrieve multiple rows. After the host structure array or row
|
||
|
|
storage area has been filled by the FETCH, the application can loop through
|
||
|
|
the data in the array or storage area to process each of the individual rows.
|
||
|
|
The statement runs faster because the SQL run-time was called only once and
|
||
|
|
all the data was simultaneously returned to the application program.</p>
|
||
|
|
</div>
|
||
|
|
<div class="section"><p>You can change the application program to allow the database manager
|
||
|
|
to block the rows that the SQL run-time retrieves from the tables.</p>

</div>
|
||
|
|
<div class="section"><p>In the following table, the program attempted to FETCH 100 rows
|
||
|
|
into the application. Note the differences in the table for the number of
|
||
|

calls to SQL run-time and the database manager when blocking can be performed.</p>
