True, but only because the actual work is performed during commit. If we claim that DDL changes are applied immediately, but error is thrown at commit, this looks weird. Especially if we find a way to allow mixed DDL and DML - imagine ALTER TABLE and subsequent UPDATE both executing OK but failing at commit because of the metadata conflict. > But don't forget that under > normal circumstances such conflicts will be very rare. I would seriously question the need to allow concurrent DDL against the same objects. This is simply not the way people work with the relational databases. I'd rather lock the metadata being changed at the DDL time and until commit.
