I thought I need something like this, but it turns out I don't. I'm
still interested if this can be done:
Can you do a multi-thread "lock", that locks out everything else, all
other threads, without explicitly locking out those other threads?
For example, can you take a single section of code, without changing
any other code at all, and make it so that when it executes, it is the
only thing executing?

Titan,
What's the context here? You want to make it the only thread running,
or do you want to make it so that only one thread accesses that code at a
time?
If it is the former, then no, there is no way to do it. Well, you could
code your own solution, but to be honest, that's not exactly an elegant way
of doing anything (to be honest), and I am sure you can achieve what you are
trying to do without doing that.
If you are just trying to prevent other threads from accessing that
block of code at the same time (holding them at bay until a thread exits the
code section) then that's exactly what the lock statement does.
Hope this helps.

I want to make it the only thread running.
I figured there was no way to do it, and I did find a more elegant
solution that did not require it.
I was just curious about it, and I can see it is an ugly way to get
things done.
Thanks,
Titan

Hi All,
I want to lock 2 tables on 2 servers using TABLOCKX
hint. These tables function as semaphores in my
application. It means when the tables are locked
then other users will not be able to access them
and automatically they can not continue their works.
I have tried using the following code, but it
does not work. I always got the error :

Hello,
does someone know what kind of a lock is an "END" type lock and how/when
does it appear?
How can one avoid it?
This lock in my case appears during a multi-row update on a table (see the
end of this post for the example), where I would only expect to see an IX
lock on the table (present) and one X row lock for each row updated (also
present).
DB2 version is 7.2, EE, fixpak 8

Hi, I'm relatively new to programming and I would like to create a C++
multi user program. It's for a project for school. This means I will
have to write a paper about the theory too. Does anyone know a good
place to start looking for some theory on the subject of multi user
applications?
I know only bits and pieces, like about transactions, but a compendium
of possible approches to multi user programming would be very
appreciated!

I'm investigating this subject, particularly DB interactions, and could
use input.
It seems the dominant consensus, in these discussions is "use flock()
...."
I guess this would be similar to, in Java terms, using synchronized
(objLock) { ... }
This lends itself to OOP modularization, localization of reads and
writes, using locks.

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
