To: J3 09-285 From: John Reid Subject: Edit re LOCK Date: 2009 August 12 Reference: 09-007r2 The editor has pointed out an ambiguity in the description of successful execution of a LOCK statement with an ACQUIRED_LOCK= specifier. Edit [193:16-17] In 6.5.6 LOCK and UNLOCK statements, replace the second sentence of para 3 by "If the lock variable is already locked by a different image, successful execution of a LOCK statement with an ACQUIRED_LOCK= specifier leaves the lock variable unchanged and causes the scalar logical variable to become defined with the value false."
