Can someone please comment if it makes sense - I got lost (a bit): My assignment DBMain interface defines: 'public void lock(int recNo) throws RecordNotFoundException' - the comments say this: "Locks a record so that it can only be updated or deleted by THIS CLIENT. If the specified record is already locked, the current
thread gives up the CPU and consumes no CPU cycles until the record is unlocked." I am not sure what 'this client' means. At first I thought it means some id the server issues each client for identification - but the method does not allocate any argument for this. Then I thought perhaps they mean identification by the thread name - now I am lost... Can any body figure this out? Please?
