I use buffering all the time.
I just wonder if I can use transactions with  cursor adapters created on
free tables, if I use the maketransactable function. To my
understanding, cursor adapters (as well as views) are buffered.
For that reason, if I make the tables transactable BEFORE creating the
cursor adapters, will transactions work?

You're right, I thought you were asking about buffering being enabled.

I don't know the answer about cursors, but I think you're right to be a bit skeptical. Cursors are read-only by default, and they exist conceptually only in memory, so I'd expect that transactions, which are for updating, aren't really in the concept space and either won't work or, worse, will 'sort of' work, with random problems.

If I really wanted to use transactions, then I think I'd turn the cursors into free tables.
