>>SQL is simply a language that can be used to interact with the database at a high level of abstraction. Concurrency management is handled by the database engine, and there are many ways this can be done. It, like database-specific physical data storage, is below the level of SQL.
I don't see your point here. - race condition is a concurrency problem involving the database, - Concurrency management is handled by the database engine, - SQL is simply a language that can be used to interact with the database, - then, why SQL shouldn't provide tools to help the programmer tell the database engine where Concurrency may happen and should be avoided? -- _______________________________________ REUSE CODE!
