reserveLock

reserveLock(lockTarget: Object);

The reserveLock method of the Object class attempts to acquire a reserve lock on the object specified in the lockTarget parameter.

If the object already has a reserve lock or exclusive lock, the process waits until the lock is released for default timeout. (For details, see "ServerTimeout" under "JADE Object Manager Server Section [JadeServer]", in the JADE Initialization File Reference.)

A reserve lock enables you to lock an object that you intend to update, when you want to minimize the time that it is locked with an exclusive lock. For more details, see "Locking Objects", in Chapter 6 of the JADE Developer’s Reference.
