<code class="command">SET AUTOCOMMIT</code> sets the autocommit behavior of
the current database session. By default, embedded SQL programs
are <span class="emphasis"><em>not</em></span> in autocommit mode,
so <code class="command">COMMIT</code> needs to be issued explicitly when
desired. This command can change the session to autocommit mode,
where each individual statement is committed implicitly.

<code class="command">SET AUTOCOMMIT</code> is an extension of PostgreSQL ECPG.
