Hi All, The 3.23.54 Manual states in;
Section 1.4.4.3 Transactions ------------------------------------ "If you only obtain a read lock (as opposed to a write lock), then reads and inserts are still allowed to happen. The new inserted records will not be seen by any of the clients that have a READ lock until they release their read locks " But in Section 6.7.2 Lock Tables/Unlock Tables Syntax -------------------------------------------------------------------- "If a thread obtains a READ lock on a table, that thread (and all other threads) can only read from the table. If a thread obtains a WRITE lock on a table, then only the thread holding the lock can READ from or WRITE to the table." What am I missing pls? Can I, with a "READ" Lock, still write to the table? Is the following assumption correct? "READ" Lock - Thread/Client with Lock, can write to locked Table, and is ONLY ONE who can until Lock released.
