IIRC, pre-CFMX 7, there was the possibility of memory corruption if reads weren't properly locked. As of CF 7 (and still true now), the only reason to lock would be if the potential for a race condition existed. AND if it mattered whether or not there was a race condition (sometimes it really doesn't) :) -- I have failed as much as I have succeeded. But I love my life. I love my wife. And I wish you my kind of success. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?
