greets.
i have this problem, cant figure solution. a table X serves as a data store for procedure Y. the goal is to have a number of processes transferring the transactions stored in table X to procedure Y, however the following plsqlish code fragment has the opportunity of submitting the same record <n> times, where n is the number of processes. i would like to be able to do something like a sybase "read lock" on the table. (never thought that would be useful!)
declare c1 cursor for
select record from X where status = 'R' for update;
while <true> loop
open c1;
fetch c1 into :Xr;
Y(Xr);
delete X where current of c1;
close c1;
commit;
end loop;
any solutions ??
