How to use PL/SQL cursors to update data in bulk

To batch update data using PL/SQL cursor, you can follow these steps: 1. Declare a cursor: Declare a cursor using the `CURSOR` keyword and define the cursor’s query statement. 2. Open the cursor: Open the cursor using the `OPEN` keyword and bind the query result set to the cursor. 3. Define variables: Declare one or more variables to store the data from the query result set. 4. Loop through the cursor: Use the `FETCH` keyword to retrieve the next row of data from the cursor and assign it to the corresponding variable. 5. Execute the update operation: Use the `UPDATE` statement to update the data in the table, using the variable values as the update parameters. 6. Close the cursor: Close the cursor using the `CLOSE` keyword. Below is an example code demonstrating how to use PL/SQL cursor to batch update data:

DECLARE
   CURSOR c_emp IS
      SELECT employee_id, salary
      FROM employees
      WHERE department_id = 50; – 假设要更新的数据在部门ID为50的员工中
   v_emp_id employees.employee_id%TYPE;
   v_salary employees.salary%TYPE;
BEGIN
   OPEN c_emp;
   LOOP
      FETCH c_emp INTO v_emp_id, v_salary;
      EXIT WHEN c_emp%NOTFOUND;
      – 在这里执行更新操作
      UPDATE employees
      SET salary = v_salary * 1.1 – 假设将工资增加10%
      WHERE employee_id = v_emp_id;
   END LOOP;
   CLOSE c_emp;
END;
/

Please note that in actual usage, you will need to modify the query statements and update logic of the cursor according to specific requirements. Additionally, this example only updates one column of a data table, you can modify and expand it as needed.
