You have report It 

[V4REV 0003413]: VCursor_GetRecords does not check for validity of cursorRef


So I want clarify.

* I have got feeling from your code that issue is not in invalid cursorRef,
but that RecordCount is zero.

    we MUST check for empty records issue.

* but if issue is that CursorRef is invalid  then NO -- we should not check
it. Its your responsibility, as Robert have to mention.
