Re: locked files via third party program

[Charlie Noah]

Hi Richard, It's been my experience on 3.x that it totally ignores Windows locks, although the opposite may not be true. I can open a text document in Notepad++, open it in Jbase and then write it from either one. If I write it from Jbase, though, Notepad++ can detect that it has been written and load the new version (configurable, I think). I don't think Windows can actually detect the Jbase lock, but rather sees that the file has changed. If Jbase can detect a Windows lock, I'm not aware of it - I'd sure like to know, though. I don't know about 5.x. Also, I've found that I can lock a document (editing Basic source, for instance) in Jbase, and still open it in another Jbase window. I've had to implement special lock handling for that. Fortunately I'm the only one on my machine so it isn't much of a problem.

Anyone know what jbase will do when it hits and open or read command on a file that windows has locked via carbonite or other programs? Would it go to the else statement or does it just sit and wait for the release? I know it waits on a jbase lock but we are talking a third party program lock. And for that matter would 5.x handle it any different?
