Define a behavior which is called on the special cases (Rows not
found, SQL warnings or errors) in the result of SQL execution.

See <a class="xref" href="ecpg-errors.html#ECPG-WHENEVER" title="35.8.1. Setting Callbacks">Section 35.8.1</a> for a description of the
parameters.
</p></div><div class="refsect1" id="id-1.7.5.20.18.5"><h2>Examples</h2><pre class="programlisting">
EXEC SQL WHENEVER NOT FOUND CONTINUE;
EXEC SQL WHENEVER NOT FOUND DO BREAK;

A typical application is the use of <code class="literal">WHENEVER NOT FOUND
BREAK</code> to handle looping through result sets:
</p><pre class="programlisting">
int
main(void)
{
EXEC SQL CONNECT TO testdb AS con1;
EXEC SQL SELECT pg_catalog.set_config('search_path', '', false); EXEC SQL COMMIT;
EXEC SQL ALLOCATE DESCRIPTOR d;
EXEC SQL DECLARE cur CURSOR FOR SELECT current_database(), 'hoge', 256;
EXEC SQL OPEN cur;
/* when end of result set reached, break out of while loop */
EXEC SQL WHENEVER NOT FOUND DO BREAK;
while (1)
{
EXEC SQL FETCH NEXT FROM cur INTO SQL DESCRIPTOR d;
...
}
EXEC SQL CLOSE cur;
EXEC SQL COMMIT;
EXEC SQL DEALLOCATE DESCRIPTOR d;
EXEC SQL DISCONNECT ALL;

<code class="command">WHENEVER</code> is specified in the SQL standard, but
