the purpose for the isLock(int):boolean method

[Mihai Radulescu]

Hi

I work on URLyBird 1.3.3 my DBMain interface has a isLock method

// Determines if a record is currenly locked. Returns true if the
// record is locked, false otherwise.
public boolean isLocked(int recNo) throws RecordNotFoundException;

I must implement this method, I understand what the method must do but I don't know if this method is necessary ?

Regards,
Mihai

Hi Mihai,

IMO, the isLock() method is not necessary, (except for testing purpose, for example putting an assert(isLock(recNo)) after lock(recNo)).

I don't see why a client of your DBMain should call it...
