Now we will explore row/record locks using the FairCom DB JDBC Interface.
The functionality for this tutorial focuses on inserting/adding rows/records, then updating a single row/record in the customer master table under locking control. The application will pause after a LOCK is placed on a row/record. Another instance of this application should then be launched, which will block, waiting on the lock held by the first instance. Pressing the <Enter> key will enable the first instance to proceed. This will result in removing the lock thereby allowing the second instance to continue execution. Launching two processes provides a visual demonstration of the effects of locking and a basis for experimentation on your own.
As with all other examples in the c-tree tutorial series, this tutorial simplifies the creation and use of a database into four simple steps: Initialize(), Define(), Manage(), and you’re Done() !
Tutorial #3: Locking
Here we demonstrate the enforcement of data integrity by introducing record/row "locking".
Note our simple Main() function:
import java.sql.*;
import java.io.*;
public class JDBC_Tutorial3 {
static Connection conn;
static Statement stmt;
//
// main()
//
// The main() function implements the concept of "init, define, manage
// and you're done..."
//
public static void main (String[] args)
throws java.io.IOException
{
Initialize();
Define();
Manage();
Done();
System.out.print("\nPress <ENTER> key to exit . . .");
System.in.read();
System.exit(0);
}
We suggest opening the source code with your own editor.
Continue now to review these four steps.
