RE: Record Lock message

[Joel Fritz <JFritz@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The simplest(?) method is to use the error indicator on the file opcode and
pipe the output from wrkobjlck or dsprcdlck to a spooled file that you
display in a little callable module.  Getting the immediate response can be
a problem since there is a system value that controls how long a program
will wait for resolution of a record lock.  My experience is that users on
PCs will often reboot before the delay period has passed.  I bet there's a
more elegant way to do it with APIs.

Subject: Record Lock message


Hi All,

In my application, if someone is using a record and someone else is trying
to
use it, a message should be displayed immediatly stating the same together
with
the user's name who is holding the record.
What can be the better way to do this?

Any help appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Rajeev.
