Hi, I'm new to using session variables and don't quite understand the "locking" thing. What'll happen if you don't lock everything?
Here is some code that I've been using. I used <cflock> when I created the array but not when I'm reading or writing. It's been working fine. Am I in for big bad application explosion? How would you lock the code below? Thanks, Eric Homa <CFLOCK TIMEOUT="30" THROWONTIMEOUT="Yes"> <cfif NOT IsDefined("session.basket")> <cfset session.basket = ArrayNew(2)> </cfif> </CFLOCK> <cfset FoundInBasket = 0> <!--- Case 1 - Item already exists in basket - add qty ---> <cfif ArrayLen(session.basket) NEQ 0> <cfloop from="1" to="#ArrayLen(session.basket)#" index="LoopCount"> <cfif session.basket[LoopCount][1] EQ "#Form.ModelNumber#"> <cfset session.basket[LoopCount][3] = session.basket[LoopCount][3]+#Form.AddQty#> <cfset FoundInBasket = 1> </cfif> </cfloop> </cfif> <cfif NOT FoundInBasket> <cfset session.basket[ArrayLen(session.basket)+1][1]=#Form.ModelNumber#> <cfset session.basket[ArrayLen(session.basket)][2]=#Form.SalePrice#> <cfset session.basket[ArrayLen(session.basket)][3]=#Form.AddQty#> </cfif> ______________________________________________________________________ Why Share?
