AW: Compiling Trigger Program

For exchanging trigger programs you need exclusive access to the base table.
So you cannot exchange it as long the table is locked.

Thanks. Just confirmed that the programs are locked. Will defer the
recompilation to a time when there is an 'outage' and all the engines are
down.

Vinay Gavankar asked:

Can I recompile a Trigger Program when the Trigger is Enabled and the

file is open?

and Dave Clark replied:

The program object is not locked so it can be

replaced/recreated.

That's not MY experience.

In my experience, trigger programs are ALWAYS locked (multiply locked,
if the trigger program is shared by many files) by every job that
trips them, and remain so until the job either ends or closes the
triggered file(s) and does a RCLRSC.

If you expect to be doing a lot of recompilation of trigger programs,
you might want to use a trigger-mediator.
