1) this code from point of c++ developer also is not careful.
    you have check that cursor is not empty good.
    but then you without any checks say GIVE ME 12 records.

    But you are not C++ developer, you are SCRIPT language developer.
    and therefore...


2) as I understand this GIVE ME 12 records works fine even if cursor have
e.g. 5 records.

Then I think it is not good that function complains on empty cursor.
Please report this issue into Mantis. We will fix it.
