We already know that by default Grails scaffold comes with Optimistic locking and it is achieved by version field. Now lets see how Pessimistic locking is achieved in Grails.
\nGrails has a built in method to acquire lock on object. To acquire a lock we will do something like following
\n[java]
\nBook book = Book.get(1)
\nbook.lock()
\n[\/java]
\nThe above code will fire 2 queries one for getting the object and other for taking the lock on it, something like as follows
\n[java]
\nHibernate: select book0_.id as id1_0_, book0_.version as version1_0_, book0_.name as name1_0_, book0_.price as price1_0_ from book book0_ where book0_.id=?
\nHibernate: select id from book where id =? and version =? for update
\n[\/java]
\nor we can do both the tasks in single go by using the static lock method
\n[java]
\nBook book = Book.lock(1)
\n[\/java]
\nThe above code will fire only one query
\n[java]
\nHibernate: select book0_.id as id1_0_, book0_.version as version1_0_, book0_.name as name1_0_, book0_.price as price1_0_ from book book0_ where book0_.id=? for update
\n[\/java]<\/p>\n
Whenever there is simultaneous updations of an object occurs it throws StaleObjectException. <\/p>\n
