On Sun, 25 Mar 2012 19:09:12 -0400, mwilson@the-wire.com declaimed the
following in gmane.comp.python.general:


> Most of my database programs wind up having the boilerplate (not tested):
> 
> def rowsof (cursor):
>     names = [x[0] for x in cursor.description]
>     r = cursor.fetchone()
>     while r:
>         yield dict (zip (names, r))
>         r = cursor.fetchone()
>

	In my (limited) experience, the main loop above could be replaced
with:

	for r in cursor:
		yield dict(zip(names, r))

	Though some DB adapters provide a "dictionary cursor" that already
does what this modules does; or provides a way to specify a subclassed
cursor that implements the dictionary cursor internally.
