Description

Currently, a Cursor Variable that is declared but never initialized is not supported by SnowFlake. Thus, the EWI is added, and the code commented out.

Code Example

Input Code:

IN -> SqlServer_01.sql

CREATE OR ALTER PROCEDURE notInitializedCursorTest
AS
BEGIN
    -- Should be marked with SSC-EWI-TS0035
    DECLARE @MyCursor CURSOR, @MyCursor2 CURSOR;
    -- Should not be marked
    DECLARE cursorVar CURSOR FORWARD_ONLY STATIC READ_ONLY
        FOR
        SELECT someCol
        FROM someTable;
    RETURN 'DONE';
END;

Output Code:

OUT -> SqlServer_01.sql

CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE notInitializedCursorTest ()
RETURNS VARCHAR
LANGUAGE SQL
COMMENT = '{"origin":"sf_sc","name":"snowconvert","version":{"major":1, "minor":0},{"attributes":{"component":"transact"}}'
EXECUTE AS CALLER
AS
$$
    DECLARE
        -- Should be marked with SSC-EWI-TS0035
        !!!RESOLVE EWI!!! /*** SSC-EWI-TS0035 - CURSOR VARIABLE DECLARED BUT NEVER INITIALIZED, THIS IS NOT SUPPORTED IN SNOWFLAKE SCRIPTING ***/!!!
        MYCURSOR CURSOR;
        !!!RESOLVE EWI!!! /*** SSC-EWI-TS0035 - CURSOR VARIABLE DECLARED BUT NEVER INITIALIZED, THIS IS NOT SUPPORTED IN SNOWFLAKE SCRIPTING ***/!!!
        MYCURSOR2 CURSOR;
        -- Should not be marked
        cursorVar CURSOR
        FOR
            SELECT
                someCol
            FROM
                someTable;
    BEGIN
         
         
        RETURN 'DONE';
    END;
$$;
