Description:
------------
It seems the cursor didn't close after iterated through with foreach statement, but I don't insist any other causes.

I don't know if it is expected, but it really cause inconvenience and reduce readability to add a fetchAll() line after every query.

Reproduce code:
---------------
$Pdo = new PDO('mysql:host=localhost,dbname=test');

$res=$Pdo->query('SELECT * FROM TEST_TABLE');
foreach($res as $row) print_r($row);

$res=$Pdo->query('SELECT * FROM TEST_TABLE2');
foreach($res as $row) print_r($row);

Expected result:
----------------
Prints out each row in table 'TEST_TABLE' and 'TEST_TABLE2'.

Actual result:
--------------
The first query seems works fine, though it might have error info left unprinted.

The second query doesn't work at all, and the query() statement didn't even report an error.

Hello,

Can you please send me your SQL definition for TEST_TABLE and TEST_TABLE2?
 [2007-12-21 12:52 UTC] vicrry at yahoo dot com dot hk 
I believe the following definition will surely cause what I mentioned.

-- ------------------------------------ --
TEST_TABLE ( id int(12) PRIMARY KEY );
TEST_TABLE2 ( id int(12) PRIMARY KEY );
-- ------------------------------------ --

In fact it occurs on every foreach I used on any table in my database.

I found a simple solve for this error.

Unset the PDOStatement object each time before your query again with the same variable.

Reproduce code:
---------------
$Pdo = new PDO('mysql:host=localhost,dbname=test');

$res=$Pdo->query('SELECT * FROM TEST_TABLE');
foreach($res as $row) print_r($row);

unset($res);

$res=$Pdo->query('SELECT * FROM TEST_TABLE2');
foreach($res as $row) print_r($row);
---------------

But this seems to be a bug anyway, it DO causes inconveniences.

Another potential cause for this bug is the MySql specific attribute 
"PDO::MYSQL_ATTR_USE_BUFFERED_QUERY".

I found it totally solved when I create my PDO object with this attribute set to true.

The shared buffer in the PDOStatement object is probably not released after foreach statements.

Not sure memory leaks occurs or not.

This is not a bug.
