module ActiveRecord module Locking # Active Records support optimistic locking if the field lock_version is present. Each update to the # record increments the lock_version column and the locking facilities ensure that records instantiated twice # will let the last one saved raise a StaleObjectError if the first was also updated. Example: # # p1 = Person.find(1) # p2 = Person.find(1) # # p1.first_name = "Michael" # p1.save # # p2.first_name = "should fail" # p2.save # Raises a ActiveRecord::StaleObjectError # # You're then responsible for dealing with the conflict by rescuing the exception and either rolling back, merging, # or otherwise apply the business logic needed to resolve the conflict. # # You must ensure that your database schema defaults the lock_version column to 0. # # This behavior can be turned off by setting ActiveRecord::Base.lock_optimistically = false. # To override the name of the lock_version column, invoke the set_locking_column method. # This method uses the same syntax as set_table_name module Optimistic def self.included(base) #:nodoc: super base.extend ClassMethods base.cattr_accessor :lock_optimistically, :instance_writer => false base.lock_optimistically = true base.alias_method_chain :update, :lock base.alias_method_chain :attributes_from_column_definition, :lock class << base alias_method :locking_column=, :set_locking_column end end def locking_enabled? #:nodoc: lock_optimistically && respond_to?(self.class.locking_column) end def attributes_from_column_definition_with_lock result = attributes_from_column_definition_without_lock # If the locking column has no default value set, # start the lock version at zero.
