ibm_db/examples/singleRowFetch.js

IBM DB2 and IBM Informix bindings for node

/*
 * This example demonstrates how to fetch a single row from a large table
 * one by one and get processed by application. It avoids allocation of 
 * large memory by the ibm_db and data processing becomes easier.
 *
 * This example has used Sync methods, but async methods also exist.
