I went and read it, too! Good stuff!
I turned on "Full Checking" for locks on my production server and now I can't get any sites to run locally that I've built except the one I'm working on now! :o) I've got a lot of "lock picking" to do! But that's good... never knew how important the locks were. Thanks for the article!

At risk of making a shameless plug I've an article that explains locking in some detail here: http://www.depressedpress.com/DepressedPress/Content/ColdFusion/Guides/L ocking/Index.cfm It's only completely applicable to CF 4-5 (version 3 wasn't multi-threaded and MX is thread-safe - although much of the material is still applicable). But if you are using v4-5 then you really must learn this. It'll save your sanity later. ;^) Jim Davis ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Your ad could be here.
