@@cursor_rows !

Hi!
Is @@cursor_rows a reliable way to get how many rows will be returned by a cursor ? I could do a count but if a variable works for me then I don't want another query!
What happens if there are 2 cursors running at the same time but one of them uses the @@cursor_rows..will I get the correct results. I have some calculations based on which row of the cursor I am on ?
Please advise


Thanks

if it is a static cursor then @@cursor_rows is useful or else use a count()
