METHOD: Application.Unlock
Application.
Unlock
The
Unlock
method is used to explicitly unlock the variables in the
Contents
collection of the
Application
object.
In contrast, the
Lock
method prevents all other users from changing any of the variables in the
Contents
collection of the
Application
object. This ability to lock is required since
Application
objects are designed to be shared among an unlimited number of users. Therefore, you need the ability to allow only one user at a time to make changes and you do this by locking everybody else out.
Remember, to completely unlock an object, you must call
Unlock
the same number of times you have called
Lock
. Fortunately, the server will automatically unlock all locks placed on the object when the script times out or the .asp file ends.
Code:
<%
Application.Unlock
%>
