LOX - File Busy / Record Locked Utility
|
|
Introduction
Professional Programming Services is proud to offer the solution to what is
arguably the must annoying and recurring problem within the BBx, Cimpro
and Thoroughbred Basic communities.
Depending on the application this
problem can manifest itself as a "FILE/RECORD BUSY",
"FILE BEING USED BY ANOTHER TASK" or the dreaded "ERR=0 HAS
OCCURRED ON LINE ..." error message. LOX will answer the inevitable
question that follows i.e., |
"Ok, so who has my record locked?"
or
"Who is Busying up my file?!!!"
|
System Requirements
BBx or Thoroughbred Basic Environment.
Unix / Linux (all flavors including SCO, HP-UX and many more).
How It Works
LOX Utilizes OS level extensions to quickly determine and display
the identity of any/all users currently accessing a given file or record.
