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.
