Transactions and lock states form a part of the makeup of the API and its functions.
Although difficult to control in their entirety, locks and transactions are interlinked with queries within SQLite and most database systems. The key to better transactions involves the programmer writing good SQL code, ensuring that it will perform well, and catering for possible errors and issues during the journey so that the application does not crash or leave the user in the lurch. Another issue with locks will relate to which resources you need. Sometimes, it could be a badly written code that does not use autocommit
or is holding an exclusive lock to a table and another part of your process, and you can't update it, as an example. So, it is very important for the programmer to gauge, learn the API, and understand how locking and transaction strategies will work to produce a smooth and good app.
By default, autocommit
is used in SQLite where transactions cycles start and end, which...
