At the first glance, this is what we called "cursor stability" and have fixed in FB3. But in fact it covers other cases as well and I don't think we support them (e.g. DSQL cursor is open, one row is fetched, then an update is posted, then the second row is fetched). > If a holdable cursor is open during an SQL-transaction T and it is held > open for a subsequent SQL-transaction, then whether any significant > changes made to SQL-data (by T or any subsequent SQL-transaction in > which the cursor is held open) are visible through that cursor in the > subsequent SQL-transaction before that cursor is closed is determined as > follows: AFAIU, this chapter means that T has been committed but the cursor was hold (something similar to our commit retaining), i.e. transactions are started and committed sequentially. I don't know how it should be applied to the scenario with concurrent transactions.
