int db::Table::lock_row ( ObjectLockMode  lock_mode  ) 

Lock the current row until the transaction is committed.

Parameters:
lock_mode 
  • DB_LOCK_SHARED Obtain a shared lock.

    When applied to a table or row, a shared object allows other transactions to read, but not modify, the locked object. When applied to a transaction, a shared lock allows other transactions to access the database concurrently.

  • DB_LOCK_EXCLUSIVE Obtain an exclusive lock.

    When applied to a table or row, an exclusive lock prevents other transactions from reading or writing the locked object. When applied to a transaction, an exclusive lock prevents other transactions from starting until the current transaction is finished.
