Procedura memorizzata MySQL, gestione di più cursori e risultati di query

Ecco un semplice esempio di come utilizzare due cursori nella stessa routine:

DELIMITER $$

CREATE PROCEDURE `books_routine`()
BEGIN
  DECLARE rowCountDescription INT DEFAULT 0;
  DECLARE rowCountTitle INT DEFAULT 0;
  DECLARE updateDescription CURSOR FOR
    SELECT id FROM books WHERE description IS NULL OR CHAR_LENGTH(description) < 10;
  DECLARE updateTitle CURSOR FOR
    SELECT id FROM books WHERE title IS NULL OR CHAR_LENGTH(title) <= 10;

  OPEN updateDescription;
  BEGIN
      DECLARE exit_flag INT DEFAULT 0;
      DECLARE book_id INT(10);
      DECLARE CONTINUE HANDLER FOR SQLSTATE '02000' SET exit_flag = 1;

      updateDescriptionLoop: LOOP
        FETCH updateDescription INTO book_id;
            IF exit_flag THEN LEAVE updateDescriptionLoop; 
            END IF;
            UPDATE books SET description = 'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.' WHERE books.id = book_id;
        SET rowCountDescription = rowCountDescription + 1;
      END LOOP;
  END;
  CLOSE updateDescription;

  OPEN updateTitle;
  BEGIN
      DECLARE exit_flag INT DEFAULT 0;
      DECLARE book_id INT(10);
      DECLARE CONTINUE HANDLER FOR SQLSTATE '02000' SET exit_flag = 1;

      updateTitleLoop: LOOP
        FETCH updateTitle INTO book_id;
            IF exit_flag THEN LEAVE updateTitleLoop; 
            END IF;
            UPDATE books SET title = 'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet' WHERE books.id = book_id;
        SET rowCountTitle = rowCountTitle + 1;
      END LOOP;
  END;
  CLOSE updateTitle;

  SELECT 'number of titles updated =', rowCountTitle, 'number of descriptions updated =', rowCountDescription;
END
